A lot has happened since pen first

  touched paper,

  The evening I was inspired by a

  programme about a poet with the surname of

  Thomas:

  And music that made me want to lie in

  a field and gaze at clouds on a

  Summer’s Day.

  But, looking back through the mountains

  and valleys of this journey,

  It's been worth it to stand where I do now;

  To acknowledge and to give

  deep thanks

  The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

  For the help and support that has been

  there through it all:

  To Christel for asking me about my poems,

  To EQ Transcription Services for typing out my longhand;

  To Joe for also asking me about my poems;

  To Fabienne who lights up Instagram with her love of that

  rich, radiant and calming colour known as Blue;

  To everyone who has read this far and wishes

  to journey further:

  Thank you.

  The verse has opened and it doesn't

  want to stop :)
