I was born in 1963, London and moved to Norfolk with my parents in 1975. In 1988 I finished a four-year course in Art and Design at Great Yarmouth Art College, then worked as a graphic designer for various publishers. In 2001 I moved to Aberdeen and spent time as a bookseller within Ottakars bookshop before a change of career to the oil industry. Reading as always been a first passion of mine and I enjoy reading and writing general fantasy with a splash of horror for young and old adults alike. I'm still in the North-East of Scotland, married to Carolyn
I sat so merry in my abode
Loving hands around me
I dreamt of such glorious days
One day i would see
I remember the day I left
My room
I closed the door behind me
One quick look again
Then walked away
The room which would always remind me
The glorious days I had dreamt
I did merrily spent
How little did I then know
Life turns on a dime
My room is now not as it was
When I closed the door
Behind me
My room now is a prison
But not how one would invision
It is one of sorrow and grief
Sadness burns into the bare walls
I catch my breath
And weep
Why did thou'st doth betray?
The room which once embraced me
I ask with riddled heart
Jagged and torn
Which wicked riddles have I thus sought?
I sit still
I am now my room
No dreams as once before
I age before my open door
In my room long ago
I sat merrily in my loving abode
Loving hands did hold me
All gone
My room and myself
Now one
Two thrust to be together
Forever
Alone
