Introduction

“I will give you the treasures of darkness

Riches stored in dark places..…”

Isaiah 45(3)a NIV

I started writing poetry twelve years ago at a very dark time in my life.  It was 1995, I was 39 and had been clinically depressed for two years*. As if to say things are never as dark as they seem, seeds of poems developed into mature plants as I put pen to paper.  In God’s universe even the darkness bears fruit.

*A depression that has now lasted forteen years.
