I write two kinds of poem - the jolly sort that might make you laugh at a staged event, and the more thoughtful sort that is better read in the bath with a glass of wine. We don't have to choose between 'page' and 'stage' poetry - we all have both a brain and a sense of humour.

These are all my own work! so if you want to use any of them elsewhere, please contact me. I'll probably say yes.
