Dark

The poems that adorn these pages cover a wide variety of topics that are well known to the author. It would be fair to say that he has witnessed more than most over half a century on the planet. At the age of sixteen, looking for excitement, he left the peaceful town of Wimborne in Dorset and joined the Metropolitan Police in London. He served the community of London for over twenty years before taking early retirement. He finds poetry a therapeutic way of expressing the more challenging experiences he had as a Police Officer. Since his retirement, he has worked for several charities and not for profit organisations. He is married to his beautiful and caring partner Barham; They spend their time between the Isle of Bute in Scotland and Hurghada in Egypt. Dark, light and twilight, That is life, That is where we all live.
