Collection

Trees, Clouds, Gardens and Other Friends

PREFACE

The poems in this Collection have no connection with the Holy City – that is, Liverpool!

But there again, Liverpool people are nothing if not explorers. In particular, Kellie Castle in Fife, along with the Peak District are the places that gave rise to this set of poems. We Scousers love our own city but we also hold passions further afield.
