I write haiku poetry and non-fiction books. Have a fondness for single origin coffee and enjoy a good glass of red wine on the weekend.
Black Cat – Haiku
Lockdown 5K Radius 3 Haiku
a windswept graveyard pleading statues look out, up guarding narrow path
sunny winter's day cold Atlantic waves roll in mystical silence
Rowan's red berries dance to the wicked west wind's tune sweeping rain unfurls
Morning Dew 3 Haiku
the rain's overture taps lightly on the awning sat in solitude
the morning dew fades drops linger in the shadows rising sun's slow climb
early morning dew softens earth in flower tubs a magpie's breakfast
P.S.
The Pier 3 Haiku
end of the pier refrigerated truck whirrs seafood restaurant
by the old pier refrigerated truck whirrs seafood restaurant
by the old pier chefs carry in today's catch seafood restaurant
P.S.
Crescent Moon 6 Haiku
Rocky Shoreline – 6 Haiku
sitting on the rocks soft splash of incoming waves smoothing out pebbles
sitting on the rocks soft splash of incoming waves cabin cruiser sets sail
sitting on the rocks soft splash of incoming waves trapped bladder wrack
today's dark grey haze burns off with afternoon sun sit on shoreline rocks
today's dark grey haze burns off with afternoon sun rest on shoreline rocks
today's heavy haze burns off with the afternoon sun tarry on shoreline
P.S.
Don’t forget my latest Haiku collection ” Catch the Silence ” is free to read on Wattpad
Humility & The Tao
Twilight – 3 Haiku
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
hedgerows in silence
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
hedgerows are silent
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
three islands in view
P.S.

Gandhi & The Customer
A customer is the most important visitor on our premises
He is not dependent on us, we are dependent on him
He is not an interruption in our work, he is the purpose of it
He is not an outsider in our business, he is part of it
We are not doing him a favour by serving him
He is doing us a favour by giving us an opportunity to do so
Gandhi
P.S.
Many years ago when I was starting out, a wise man said to me ” No customers, No business “.
