Hi, I am a creative writer, mainly dealing in songs, poems, and short stories. I am presently working on four different manuscripts, one of which I am trying to get published through an agent in the US.
I was born and presently reside in Ireland.
I am happily
I only wanted to be a dad Living in despair, my life almost meaningless Slouched upon a chair, my flat in a right mess Cans empty everywhere, how did it get to this My wife doesn't care, for she lives in happiness Six months ago this day I arrived home from work With a man, she did lay, I nearly went berserk My children kept...

Instincts Our natural instincts tell us, When something's not quite right, They come as a gut feeling, From our universal sight, It's a kind of knowing, Which comes from deep within, It's a kind of seeing, Where your ordinary eyes are dim, Instincts are a part of you, Of who you truely are, They're there to guide us through ...

Winter sleigh rides Snuggled in my nice warm coat, Thick gloves on my hands, Holding on tight as the dogs start to go, Pulling me faster through the snow, Fir trees in the distance, Break the constant white, Orange slithers through the sky, Say it will soon be night, The sound of the skids, As they crush the ice, A pair of c...

Cloudy skies: I awoke on a march morning, With something special to be done, Looked out through my window, Hoping to find the sun, Today was like no other day, I had an objective in mind, I'd hoped it would be sunny, But only cloudy skies I could find, I went to have some breakfast, My family had a fry with me, Before we wen...

Sailing I sit here in my sailing boat, Way out in the sea, There's no one here, I think to myself Just my boat and me, Cruising further from the shore, The land line is deminishing, My sail is bulging, with the wind, There's one thing that I am wishing, I wish to do this again real soon, The feeling is tremendous, The sound ...

Breathing: Air is all around us, Every day and every night, Breathing it is second nature, But you need practice to get it right. Almost all us just breath short breaths, Which only reach our chest, There are some who breath more deeply, They know that this is best, The short breaths that we're breathing, Are just about enou...

If the electorate of any country agrees with the imposition of military drafting, then it's only right and proper that everyone from that country should indeed be tarred with the same brush. Women have equal status in all departments of the constitution, and are above equal status on a number of issues. I personally see ever... More..
Dragons Mythical creatures, From a vivid imagination, Only through books, and films, Have they had creation, Fearsome flying beasts, Soaring ever higher, Crashing to the earth, Breating out thier fire, Humungus in their stature, Fangs like elephant tusk, Legs like big oak tree trunks, Not tamed by men like us, Grasping child...

Snow: Flakes of individuality, Endless different shapes, All join to make one blanket, To cover all landscapes, Little gentle ice crystals, Falling softly from the sky, Effortlessly form such beauty, Without ever having to try, Another of natures gifts to us, To show us what to do, You don't have to try to be beautiful, You ...
