Greetings once again. I have put the Resurrection Miracles poems on to their own pages as sub-headings to the title page. This page now has a summary concerning the three poems, majoring on probably the least known of the three; the raising of the widow’s son at Nain, found only in Luke’s Gospel.
Also, as a tiny taster, I have uploaded the 22 line Invocation on to the Triduum page, so that is something for you to enjoy, I hope. I am currently wrestling with how to put the entire poem on to the site, all 5966 lines, yes lines, of it! This may involve doing as I have done with the Resurrection Miracles, or trying to create a book version using PDF documents converted from Microsoft Word files. I shall get there in the end, I promise you! Thank you very much for your patience and understanding.
As the letters after my surname would suggest, I am a member of a religious order; Third Order, Society of St. Francis. I served a second term of office on the Provincial Chapter of the Order, as Provincial Secretary and Trustee for three years and have since stood down. I have been a Tertiary Franciscan since my profession in 1996. As well as writing poetry, I enjoy the theatre, and have been a member of a local theatre company. I enjoy cricket too, and am a Life Member of Sussex County Cricket Club.
In April 2026, after approximately one year on a "Discernment Pathway", I was received into the Roman Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil. It was such a joyous occasion, being supported by so many people at my Confirmation. Those memories will live with me forever.
I hope you will enjoy browsing over this site, and that you will find something to help you on your spiritual journey.
