This is a selection of some of the many poems I have written over the past twenty years. They represent my story and my need always to express the way I feel. All my life it has been my way.
Robert Frost said, ‘Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.’ Wordsworth said, ‘Poetry originates from emotion recollected in tranquility.’
For me a poem always came into being when the passing of time allowed a space to reflect on moments when emotions were so intense thinking was impossible.
There are many millions of women in the world who have no voice and so, rather than stifling mine when I have an opportunity to speak out, perhaps I may be able to speak on their behalf too.
