Life

There was a time when it was right It was somewhere in the beginning When things were new and unexplored There was a time when it was right When listening was enjoyed And patience was so much easier There was a time when it was right When spending time was enjoyable And not having enough of it was so hard There was a time when it was right When the journey seemed to have been worth it And seeing them made it believable There was a time when it was right together they were stronger And they could handle anything There was a time when it was right That time came and went so quick like the burning of a candle wick.

The book is well written and keeps the reader engaged from start to finish. As a professional GP myself, I struggle with time for my own hobbies let alone read...

As the real world was getting ready to sleep the magical world was starting to wake up. Suddenly, fairies appeared and flew down to circle the cast iron stags on both sides of the fountain.

She examined the creatures and knew they would make perfect gifts for the fairy King.   She instructed her fairies to entice the King by only delivering the antlers to him first. The fairy army men and women giggled as they set about the task of unhinging the two stag’s magnificent antlers. They wrapped them up in gold silk and left a sprinkling of fairy dust on the heads of each stag.   The next...

 I won a local story competition in 2021 but never got around to posting it here . The story is to follow. It won but the local council I wrote it for never ran the campaign they were going to unfortunately. The idea was going to be to have celebrities read out the stories on their Youtube channel. I think with Covid and all the idea never got any airtime. My name is below for your viewing pleasure.As most of you know I love to write but life does get in the way and before you know it months and years have passed in the blink of an eye.
