PROLIFIC VISABLE POET

Today (Sunday) I opened my keepsake box, I was looking for a certain photograph. I came across the following article I had supposedly written back in nineteen ninety. For this blog I have brought it up to date. Back then I wasn't a writer like I am today. I've also swapped from a type writer to my laptop. I have included a picture of the original that was in the then 'Carreg Llwyd Church' Petros magazine (Greek word meaning "rock" or "stone". It's the Greek form of the name Peter ). On the twenty second of April nineteen ninety, was the day of my baptism. Apart from the expected nerves, I was looking forward to this. I was obeying God's command; when he asks all believers to 'believe and be baptised.' Before the service my pastor prayed with everyone being baptised that morning.  He prayed that God would be with us and we wouldn't be nervous. God answered those prayers: because when I shared my testimony in front of the whole ch...

  T oday I’m celebrating ten years since the start of my writing journey. It all started back in 2015. I had already many years of creativity behind me especially card making and embroidery. I never even considered ten years later I would become the writer I am today. It all started back in 2015, circumstances at the time weren’t great and often my frustrations would often be active or verbal. Several people in my home church including the pastor at the time Derek Hughes encouraged me to keep a written journal. It really helped me pen my frustrations down on paper than outwardly getting my frustrations out on others. During this season I really felt the presence of Jesus helping and guiding me. It was about a year and a half of journaling, that I was unknowingly penning my daily journal in poetry form.  Over the years my poetry has developed: not only writing privately but also getting commissions from the church and other platforms I’m involved with. In 2018 my writin...

  As writer one of my biggest regrets now is throwing away my old journals. At the time I felt it right to do and pressured to do so. Those journals had a lot angry stuff as well as good things in them. Things now would have helped visually see how far I've come from especially how I handled tough situations to how I now can better mange them.  Some where when my sister left for south Africa, although Those memories still remain, and can see the faithfulness of God. Now a day's the journals are packed with poetry and sermon notes.i did manage to save my first ever poem I had written.  I am a prolific writer and recently tried my hand at short story writing. I loved creating characters, but found the process very difficult. The story so far is there isn't a story book coming outas i had wished for.  I'm first and foremost a poet and not a story writer. Unfortunately it can't be published at this present time. Yes it is very difficult to accept and the negitive feedb...

THE PARABLE OF THE MISSING STORY Milly-Molly was a young published author who most days could be found scribbling in her journals. A journal is a record that stores details of your life ranging from events, ideas, feelings, and your daily thoughts, memories. In this way, she was able to remember what she did, what she was thinking and feeling, and what had happened. One week in February, someone asked Milly-Molly the writers permission for a piece of writing she did for them last year. Milly-Molly agreed but then couldn't find any electronic version of it, but never disclosed this to the friend.  She  remembered that it would of been been in one of her writing journals, he prayed to the Lord that He would help her find it,  within the twelve journals and eight notebooks she had previously written in. Yet procrastination got the better of her; she found herself reading through pieces of writing she had written in the past. Some pieces where joyful whilst others crin...

I sit here and write this, yet unintentionally it was never meant as a blog. It was to be a story about a letter box, but history over ruled a fictional story being written. Perhaps that story may happen in the future. I'm not even sure now what provoked the thought of letter/post boxes, perhaps the guy unsuccessfully trying to post a parcel through the letter this afternoon, and then ringing the door bell to hand deliver it. Anyway enough of me waffling, let's get down to business.  In 1840 Uniform Penny Post was launched marking a revolution in the way the postal system could be used. Rowland Hill’s postal reforms made way for the postal system to almost every person in Britain. Use of the system grew rapidly, as a result the earlier systems for collecting, sorting and delivering letters had to change. One such change was in the means of people posting letters.Before the Road-Side Letter Boxes there was mainly two ways of posting a letter. Senders would either have to take th...

1. Pistyll Rhaeadr: Pistyll Rhaeadr is the tallest waterfall in the UK, but it’s higher than Niagra Falls, at a staggering 240 feet tall. It sits in the Berwyn Mountains, splashing the deep green foliage on either side. It then runs through another two tiers, crashing under rock-carved bridges and burrowing its way around beautiful natural scenery. 2. Llangollen Bridge: This medieval bridge in Llangollen stretches across the River Dee with three charming arches, allowing the water to rush under it and nature to grow around it. It connects the equally charming black-bordered white houses on both sides of the bank. 3. Overton yew trees: In the small village of Overton-on-Dee, not one but over 20 wonders standing in a circle in the churchyard of St Mary the Virgin. Some of the yews are so ancient they pre-date the church itself and have been standing strong in the same spot for thousands of years. 4. Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa): This mountain is most famous of the seven wonders of Wales. It is...
