Hi,
I Live in a village near Derby, in the East Midlands, UK.
I have been writing for many years, but am just starting to share my verses with the outside world. I tend to write whatever is in my head at the time, so do not have a particular style that I follow.

I am a divorced father of two lovely grown up girls, and enjoy life for what it is..
I have in the past written verses for other people, and am happy to write something new given a particular subject and a few key words.

I hope you enjoy reading what I am putting on the site, and am happy to receive feedback via my mail address
"peggimon@hotmail.co.uk", this is an old nick name that stuck for many years and just seems to be the norm now..
To finish i will add a couple of sayings that reflect the my outlook on this wonderful life.

Every day may not be good, but there is always good in every day

Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.~

My passion is ...

Music and Writing

I know too much about ...

Can there be such a thing

My parents always told me ...

Stop that, you'll make it bleed

My favorite memory ...

The birth of the girls

Why I write ...

Because i enjoy it

My inspiration ...

Life, Emotions

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: About friendship

123 of 247

Friends are there to listen and cheer
friends are there to wipe away the tear
friends don't judge or take others sides
they don't ebb and flow like the tides
like a tree planted deep, just always there
to listen and console you in time of need
offer advice, and is OK if you don't heed
to lift your chin when it is down
they never laugh at you, scowl or frown
they offer the helping hand when needed
worth their weight in gold it is conceded
a shoulder to cry on, and trouble shared
they don't mind if it's your soul that's bared
to put plain perspective into the world
reality check...
