Poems

This modest volume gathers the lyrical work of a poet who writes with both delicate observation and a quietly rebellious spirit. Across its pages the verses move from the quiet decay of a forgotten garden to the restless dreaming of wind and rain, offering snapshots of nature, love, and the inner lives of women navigating a changing world. The language is spare yet resonant, allowing each image—a seed in a dusty room, a fleeting sunset, a whispered confession—to linger in the listener’s mind.

The collection includes memorable pieces such as “The Seed Shop,” where wilted blossoms become a metaphor for hidden potential, and “Man and His Makers,” a meditative dialogue between the self and the elements. In “The New Aspasia” the poet adopts a historical voice to explore themes of desire, sacrifice, and the limits of compassion, while shorter works like “A Song for Old Love” and “Lady Hamilton” blend humor with poignant reflection. Listeners will find a blend of introspection and vivid description that feels both of its time and timeless.
