About Me

Hi! My name is Greg and I live in the county of Norfolk in Great Britain. I was born in 1966 so you work it out if you’re interested!

Me.

I’m married with two daughters, the younger of whom is profoundly autistic. My wife is chronically ill so I gave up going out to work to become what I guess you’d call “a home carer”. In this endeavour elder daughter is a complete Godsend and the greatest kid a man could wish for in my humble opinion! A Golden Retriever and a Cocker Spaniel are loyal and loving (if not terribly bright sometimes) companions!

What you’re looking at here is a collection of my poems, verses and lyrics which I wanted to post somewhere where people could see them.

These poems are respectfully and fondly dedicated to five English teachers – Sarah Hussey, “Bernie” Philips, Mary Baird (now Mary Tebay), Martin Long and Janet Lewis, with thanks for all their patience!

The poems were originally hosted on a dedicated “free poetry site” which has now started limiting options for non-paying users so I decided to set up on my own here to display my work to the world! What you (should) see is a list of titles in the right sidebar of the page. Clicking on the title will hopefully take you to the page displaying that poem. Easy, eh?

I hope you like some of the poems. Feel free to leave a comment and let me know even if you don’t!

Love and stuff
