"Life's like that…"Love must die for a reason."When faced with life's choices it's good to have an open mind and treat every move that you make as important to your future happiness and well-being.I find that it's better to take one step forward and two steps back, because a good solid defence is better than attack!Is an attempt on my part to give an insight into a broad spectrum of feelings shared by us all and in particular how we feel about Life and Death.Love is a common thread and permeates my work like the smell of incense in a Church elevating the senses, or a searchlight looking for life in the aftermath of an avalanche.Such is the power and the meaning of words when used provocatively in poetry to give life to complex emotions and feelings.
