I’ll admit it – I’m hooked on KINDLE at the moment. It is so easy to put writing you’ve wanted to share for years, up in a KINDLE book and let the world judge it.
I’ve signed up for the Lending Library as well, so people can just borrow the book for a short time, read it and hopefully purchase their own copy – or not.
I still get a fee… so if you feel like reading some short poems about falling in love at my age, I’ve just uploaded another chapbook called appropriately ‘Love’.
I’m also working on “The Return of Rainbows” poems written while a mature-age student at University and some short stories which I hope someone will enjoy.
When I’ve put those two new books up on KINDLE, I am going to attempt converting my children’s book “Santa’s Swim” on there too, so watch this space.
Meantime, buy or lend my latest KINDLE “Love” or “Rail Tales” but remember I have a few printed copies left, which you can purchase directly from me.
Before you…
… I slept in a bed
without creases
only pulled up
the sheet to straighten
smooth – no effort at all
ready for the next dreamtime
now I love my wrinkles…
ReUnion
stepping softly
you trod the path
to my front door
never rang the bell
played favourite songs
over and over until
senses on overload
surrounded by romance
you kissed me quick
heart pumped electric
singing over barriers
erected years ago
against pain and hurt
welcomed as veins
formed highways
joined the chorus
zinging with heat
barely contained
thrumming melody
words all ready
rhymed with roses
thorns ignored
fresh and bloody
us young again
