In short

  • my most important claim to fame would be that i managed to produce six great kids 2 sons 4 daughters+2 fostered kids 1 boy 1 girl  and reared 4 others that there parents had no time for
    and through all this i had a wonderfull wife cathie i could not have done it without now we have 19 grandchildren  and 1 great  granchild .
    i write poetry im not saying im any good at it  i suppose it is based on the frame of mind i am in at the time wether i am just reminising about childhood or whether i am feeling a bit depressed about the state of the world.
    i see it  more or less as my statement of how i feel  its my way of letting off steam and i feel a bit  embarrassed  about showing my poems
    ive had a couple of poems placed in anthologys by poetry .com
    my dream would be to become an author and would be obliged for any advice or conservative criticism thankyou
