Still Life poetry booklet


Still Life is my second ALF poetry booklet. It consists of my three poetry collections on WattPad. Teenage Troubles features a selection of poetry I wrote as a teenager and includes Dave was a Caveman, a poetry competition runner up, and the Antique Junk Shop, which is now also a YouTube video. An Anatomy of Love features romantic poetry I have written over the years on different aspects of relationships from Valentine's Day to Anything but Love. All Grown Up is about specifically an adult view of the world including expanded older poems Crossing the Bridge and Opening the Door. The poetry booklet also features drawings by myself and my daughter some of which can be found on our Pinterest pages here. The three collections of poetry can be found on my WattPad pages here. Below is a collection of poetry books produced by ALF Creations, which I sell on our craft stall.

Aspects of Tea

There is something special about a cup of tea. Whenever I sit down to read, write, reflect, plan or just have a really good think, I like to have a nice cup of tea handy to enhance the experience. I think that has been why contemplating 'Aspects of tea' has been a big creative idea in my life and has carried on from the SubVerse Poetry Tea Room to the Star Heart Cafe. Some of my tea related memorabilia can be found on my Pinterest Board 'Aspects of tea' and also via a musical montage on YouTube, 'Aspects of tea' is accompanied by me playing Gnossiennes 1 and 3 by Satie on my electirc piano.
