"Your poems of nature, the seasons and your sensitivity in choice of words makes things come alive. You don't impose fine words on them as if to impress or overwhelm; instead you give them a voice, - their voice. And then at the right moment, subtly yet unobtrusively, you introduce your voice, which speaks an even deeper truth." Pat Logan, London
"Your book of poems conveys a rare awareness and sensitivity, an awareness of a wider world reality than most see or experience. I love so many of them, but this morning, "Autumn Revelation" feels so much in touch with the rhythms of nature, and indeed the rhythms of life and death. You see the world with a sort of enlightened eye, I think." Inez McLeary, Scotland
