Within These Pages You Will Find Another 103 Original Pieces Written By Me Between July 2017 And October 2019. During This Time I Lost My Father Michael Mccarthy To The Dreaded Cancer As Well As His Sister And My Dear Aunt Shelagh Barnard So I Would Like To Dedicate This Book To Their Memory. Some Dear Friends Have Also Suffered With Loss And I Have Included Many Poems Written For Them Some At A Request For A Eulogy Type Piece. Other Poems Were Inspired By World Events Or Just A Photograph [The Latter Usually Inspired My War Pieces].
