The Garden Party

"My interest in poetry was rekindled in November 2017 when I was launching a literary trail on the Isle of Wight. The event was held at Farringford, the home of Alfred Lord Tennyson, and I read “Crossing the Bar" at the event. At the same time I was creating a tie-in with Michael Rosen’s children’s story “We’re going on a Bear Hunt” for a family trail the following Spring. Immersed as I was in the subject matter at the time, I started to think about writing poetry myself". Four years later I am reading and writing more poetry than ever before. I have a Facebook page and a website where I showcase my work and seek out comments from my followers to improve my future work.
