Poems from a Resurrected Heart

Poems from a Resurrected Heart is an enthralling collection of poems which captures the catharsis of both a loving and lamenting heart. This was written as a journey of healing and moving on from grief to love, spanning five years up to now; crafting it into emotive works of poetry.

In this collection, there are poems to appeal to all audiences ranging from: pure unconventional love, the experiences of the LGBTQ and narratives of society including conservatism and religious influence. With a careful mix of traditional forms, like the metaphysical genre and contemporary free verse, each poem has been intrinsically shaped to address their crux, giving every reader the chance to reflect upon their experiences in light of my own.

The aim of this collection is for emotional self-reflection through the medium of someone whose life experiences may differ to yours, but through the raw, emotional transparency and intelligent poetic craft of this collection, even those most different to me may be brought to tears.

Under

If we deliberately pause our breath – sitting or standing, watching closely – we notice a second stream of breathing, quieter and more elusive, yet always there.

Even when we think it stops, we discover, thankfully, it never truly does.

This new collection of poems, Under, works the same way. As you read, whenever you pause, you’ll realize you’ve been breathing all along.

Death to the Cybermen

In the beginning there were cyborgs, who took over the land in the desert world, until they were slowly assimilated as the sands died away.
This book is a collection of modern poetry covering a variety of themes such as the threat of mythical cyborgs, the riotous red bull of Queen Maeve, and the haunting beauty of the girl next door. These poems spark the imagination with vivid imagery and tonal colour. The author explores a more classical approach to the romantic poetry genre.

Painting with Words

Life is a journey where we gather experiences, discover the depths of love, and ultimately face the searing pain of parting – whether through death, overwhelming grief, or the surreal void left by those we’ve lost. The absence of a spouse, a partner, a child, once so present, now gone, creates a chasm we struggle to comprehend.

The poems in this collection reflect the author’s observations on the human condition, capturing the profound joy of love and the deep ache of loss that inevitably follows. While deeply personal, these poems are meant to resonate universally with anyone who has lived, loved, and grieved. They offer a mirror to life’s highs and lows, holding moments of humour, joy, and sorrow, and ultimately honouring a life well lived.

The Elements of Excellence

The Elements of Excellence is a series of poems; a source of motivation and guidance, borne from many years of someone trying to write something that can help people all over the world.At first, the author didn’t know how he was going to do this, but as he wrote more about different virtues and what they meant to him, he realised that he wanted to help others do three things: achieve their goals, be good human beings, and find happiness, no matter their situation, state of mind, or aspect of life they wished to grow or achieve in. For him, doing all three is excellence, and he was sure that anyone can do these consistently, as long as they knew how.Concise and easy to read, this is different from the usual self-help book. Poetry can resonate with people beautifully, and if it helped the author, a person with modest education in writing and literature, to realise one of his goals in publishing this type of book, it can surely help others in profound and spectacular ways.
