I've been writing poetry since my early teens. I have been published in Anthology of Eastern Poets, Witch Magazine, Witches Magazine, Pagan Dawn, Alternative Magazine and on a plaque tied to a tree on the Belper Art Trial.

​

I decided to publish a selection in a book. The book contains an eclectic mix, although primarily pagan themed, of twenty-nine poems.  A couple of which I have included, as a taster, on this page.

​

The book is available from The Purple Spell, a shop in Huntingdon UK. www.thepurplespell.co.uk

​

I am currently working on a new collection which should be published in the Spring of 2026.  It is a collection of darker poems, titled 'Blood in the Rain'.  Sleep well..............

Samhain Fire  (from Poems for The Green Man)

 

The Birch leaves fall from her golden crown,

Jackdaws and Crows in Winter voice surround,

We lift our face to this October dawn,

On the eve of the Winter Born.

 

Our Samhain fire we around circle,

In willow, berries and in purple,

We eat the feast and leave no crumb,

Then dance wild to voice, flute and drum.

Yule Song  (from Poems for The Green Man)

 

Sun in Sky stand still, await a breath of recognition.

Lengthen the hours, look beyond,

The door of The Midwinter creeps open.

Chant intentions for the days to come.

 

Late walk with me in the Night

and lift the soft dark blanket

That has held us for so long.

Burn the Log merrily, advance our Yule Song.

 

We gaze at the flames

Somewhere else we are

Not here, gone far and not far.

 to the Lower World, greet our ancestors

Who also sat here, in their Mundane time,

Drinking of the spice, flame and rhyme.

 

All with wine and spice in goblets drinking.

We beat the drum to the rush of wind

That dances briefly through the trees

A nod to the Tarot Fool with new Beginning,

But in this time suspended no one leaves.
