I must not write poems about my friends: Revised Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780473714024)

"I must not write poems about my friends" is a collection of poems that I have written about, and for my friends over a span of 40 years and more. They are a mixture of humour, love, remembrance and while I have used the real life stories of friends, I have leant heavily on my own imagination and exercised huge creative licence to make my poems more entertaining.
For almost as long as I can remember, I have written stories and poems about my beloved friends, family, and on occasion, myself.My first poem about life was at age six when I wrote a poem about rainy days and the joys of jumping in puddles -this was also my first published piece and it was in my primary school newsletter.In recent years when I first started to jot down little ditties poking affectionate fun at my friends, I mostly found no one was ever offended and often friends seemed to find my little, written caricatures to be quite flattering.Too often, these days though, I write with great love and reminiscence of special times had together or past memories of a friend or family member no longer with us.But mostly a bit of a laugh is had.All have been written with love and mixed intentions. Enjoy!
