I’m a big science fan and am fascinated by the drive to Mars and beyond. Excited to see what wonders I will see and dreaming of what lies beyond. A Farewell To Earth To travel far where none have gone, and see what none have seen, The sands of Mars, the asteroid belt, to…

So, it’s day 24 and it’s a beautiful sunny day. The birds are chirping and you can almost see the back garden coming back to life after it’s long winter sleep. I absolutely love the Springtime. The Best Season The shining sun, the singing birds, you almost hear things grow. That sense of rebirth…

So… here we are… caught up again for the moment. I just have to figure out what to catch up with. Creating Ghosts We all carry our ghosts with us, bits of our past that cling. Of choices that we now regret, that baggage that we bring. The ones we hurt, the ones we…

Just a quick ode to my dog. He is an amazing pup who fills my life with joy. Ducky Dog My pup is such an awesome boy, he’s loving and so sweet. And he is handsome as can be, from ears down to his feet. His face can say a thousand things, that…

Another personal piece today. Why I Write I love my life I really do, though it is hard sometimes. But part of how I deal with it, is through these simple rhymes. The good, the bad, the in between, these poems see it all. They help release the words that I, keep trapped behind…
