    Eric has a miserable childhood in a violent, drunken family in a tough London housing estate. He compensates by looking for perfection. For him, this means worldly success in a diplomatic career as far away from his childhood as possible. His single-minded ambition comes at a price. It makes him leave his childhood sweetheart Katie behind, since he knows that she can’t keep up with him. Their ways part. Eric marries an upper-class woman and becomes an Ambassador. However, Katie and he never quite lose touch. After his wife’s death Eric and Katie come together again. There is action and pace, fun and sadness, a huge variety of life experiences and a sense of providence and redemption.

    It’s the year of 2020
Which no one will forget,
When we fought a lethal virus
That posed a deadly threat.
Mel rhymes her way through lockdown,
It enables her to cope,
And in her witty verses
Spreads positivity and hope,

    The Poetry of Churchyards

    The church building has been pivotal to man’s spiritual and religious life for centuries. 
For many the interior of a church is literally their one to one with God.  The interiors, whether soaring or simple, ornate or minimal, are built for communion, for worship. 
Outside and surrounding our many churches is the churchyard; the burial ground, the repository for faithful souls. An all-weather idyll of calm around where many a poet has sat and contemplated the surrounding world. 
The stone may be old, weathered and worn. The trees and grass overgrown and wind-blown but this is a sanctuary, a shelter from frenetic life.  Moments here in reflective solitude make thought redemptive. This is unquestioning ground that makes no demands on those who seek to stop and wonder. 
Within this volume of glorious verse questions are asked, decisions are made.  And whether of Faith or not this oasis of calm brings solitude, renewal and an awareness that Life can produce answers to the most pressing of problems.
