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.

May gardening haiku
may gardening
starlings circle a blackbird
with a worm
may gardens
silver birch weeps the lake
lilies catch her tears
(Altamont)
may breeze
foxgloves freckled lips quiver
whistling a tune
herb garden
parsley passing thyme
In the sunshine
may noon
choir of campanula bells
buzz with bees
may gardening
starlings circle a blackbird
with a worm
may breeze
purple lupins point
dancing towards the sea
cloudless day
love in a mist
mirrors the sky
trees swish and sway
each leaf a different sound
breezy symphony
may afternoon
bees gather nectar
in honey sunshine
gardening break
in my mug of tea
the sun
grass cuttings
a swarm of bees nesting
in the compost bin
may sunshine
foxgloves freckled lips quiver
whistling the breeze
garden weeding
the scent of fennel still
on my hands
hedge clippings
in the wheelbarrow
autumn mixed with spring
