I write for pleasure and when I feel strongly about something I find it much easier to be articulate writing my feelings down than trying to explain myself vocally. Some of the poems I wrote when my marriage broke down after twenty years are quite dark and depressing, but there is always the golden thread of hope running through which lifts the spirit at the end.
It would be nice to think that readers of my work could relate to some of my sentiments, especially the humour in poems like The Ironing Pile and The Driving Test.
Those of you who are grandparents could well feel the same as I did when my grandson was born in 1996, he was the inspiration for For Leo/
And for all those of you with military connections, please look for Falkland Malvinas, To Keep The Peace For You & Me and Thanks To Wootton Bassett.
Actually having my poetry published at last is a lifetime dream come true for me, and it will make me very happy indeed to have a few readers and for my poems to make them laugh, cry and think.
Om författaren
Jane has always written, ever since she was a child at junior school, but it wasn’t until the mid-70’s, when she was a wife and mother, that she discovered her talent for writing in verse, and since then she has penned over 150 poems.
Sometimes there are long, non-creative periods of time, when, in her own words “my brain goes into standby mode” and nothing is forthcoming, then, for no apparent reason, something happens to kickstart her creativity again.
She writes from the heart about her own life experiences and how she feels about past, present and future newsworthy events, local, national and worldwide.
She has been inspired to write poems about her family, friends and pets and they all have their own personal favourites, the majority of which are published in this, her very first book.
