I am Irish and am writing poetry since 2010. I particularly love haiku, a Japanese form of writing. A lot of my work has been published online and in print. I love to paint - mainly water-colour. I enjoy nature, flora and fauna. In 2015, I started Card Making with cross stitch and many other materials. I craft a lot now that I am retired. I love to combine art and crafts with painting and writing.

New Year 2012
in my mirror
blackbirds on bare branches
chirping in the year
a new era
watching the last sunset
of a passing year
new year dawn
the neighbours still
heading home
new year dawns
pain sinks deeper
with the last sunset
new year party
unwanted christmas gifts
rehoused
new year parties
strangers kissing strangers
all over the world
new year countdown
champagne corks pop
hands holding hands
people gather
embracing the past
into something new
countdown
a breath between today
and tomorrow
countdown
smiling from one year
into another
new year
hoping for more
of the same
new year fireworks
a grey january day
sparkles
new year
daffodils
green shoots
