    SPARKS FROM THE GLOOM is a fervent regret on the absurdities of life to a fragile mankind caught up in their frustrating webs as well as an attack on the ills that plague the society of men through their fellow kite-like humankind who engage themselves in cold vampire type search for gain for coveted super-beings over their mortal mades. The work high-lights through solid probes the real values, long forgotten by these to the benefit of the fickle, porous and sham world for the super gods they strive at. A close look at the metaphorical style and the diction of the pieces in this collection also brings to mind that, far from harping solely on the moral ills of the society, the poet equally delves into the breaking intellectual ability of such darkening masses to conceive and construe in their real forms and contents, what is of value per se. Working towards solutions to these, the work stretches from the layman's conception of phenomena to a much more close-knitted, subtle an metaphorical style meant for those that could conceive, analyse and build at a higher level. Hence, everyone, from a mellow-moulded adolescent to a literary don would find the subjects worth their contents and objectives.

    There have been many books written, and much research carried out, about this Queen, who is so well revered by this country, and held up as a figure to be admired and remembered for all time, that she has a statue in her honour in Westminster, London. Boudicca had her kingdom cruelly taken from her by the occupying Roman forces, when her husband died. We have a few paragraphs, written by a Roman, named 'Tacitus' which tells us how Boudicca was invited to a meeting with the Romans, which she thought was to welcome her as the Queen of the Iceni. She did not receive the hospitality she expected, and the treatment that she, and her daughters received, are believed to be the trigger for what happened next. The Romans under-estimated the strength and grit of Boudicca and the fanatical support of her people, and came to regret their actions. The book tells the story of Boudicca's campaign to reclaim her kingdom. Written to inform the reader about the way of life of the ancient Britons, it tells how the occupying Roman forces ruled them. How Boudicca inspired her tribesmen and led them in a campaign that saw the destruction of Colchester, London and St Albans.

    Everyone searches for Love. In its many forms it can bring happiness, contentment and peace. In these poems I've tried to define different kinds of love. One single idea of love is far too much of a generalization. There's passionate love that drives the need to procreate, there's the tender and constant love of family, also the love of pets and how we weep for them when they're no longer with us. There's the love of all things in Nature. Whatever kind of love we choose, it always comes from the heart. Ultimately, there's the love radiating from the wondrous Universe which permeates our bones, sinews and every atom of our being. We are all made of the same stuff, this Stardust - this Divine Light.

My poem cannot be more rhythmic than yours. Raiment of the ploughman attracts my rhythms. Your words are the beautiful play of the leopardess,And my poems rise from the moistened earth.

    Tall Tales of Malaysia is a collection of 18 vivid and memorable short stories about life in the Federation of Malaysia. The stories vary greatly in scope and theme. However, taken together, they capture the distinctive flavour of the people and states that make up modern Malaysia, its exotic rainforest, its diverse races, its indigenous people and their belief in ghosts, djinns and bomohs. There is a good deal of flashback to the colonial era and some mention of the legacy issues which still remain. The stories are entirely fictional and belong to the rich oral tradition of storytelling across Southeast Asia. Tall Tales of Malaysia are refreshingly different. They are gripping and a joy to read.

    "e;Tell me Tomorrow and Other Stories"e; is a book of miscellaneous tales, most of which involve a distortion of time, as well as the subject of those who experience problems interacting with others in the everyday world. Two are about ghosts; one tells of the nightmare a young woman suffers once losing her job and having recited a nursery rhyme to a child. Another relates to a middle-aged woman who only just discovers that her problems relating to others has been due to having a condition that had gone undiagnosed, while one is about an intolerant right wing political party on the verge of coming into power. Then there is the tale of the girl with cerebral palsy whose wish to become able-bodied and to live an independent life is granted - but only for a limited time, another about the re-introduction of the workhouse and household servant to a post-pandemic Britain, where unemployment is rife and benefits no longer exist, and one about the adverse effects of Covid-19.

    Stories from Irish History is a collection of 13 stories based on selected episodes in Irish history, some of which are unremembered. They are historical fiction, a popular modern genre which has great appeal for many readers. Even though the stories are partly fictional, they are based on extensive historical research. We have to go back in time in order to discover ourselves and our culture. We do not have to live in the past but neither should we deny it. Our history is all around us, in the very air we breathe, not only in our history books but in the hills and valleys, in our lore and literature, in our art and architecture, in our songs and poetry. We know that the past is never past. We need to know who we are and who we used to be. We need to know about our cultural heritage, our pre-history, our lore, our local history and the story behind placenames. Ireland is a nation of story-tellers and historical fiction keeps that tradition alive not only in Ireland but also among the Irish diaspora in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

    These poems are the echoes of a soul that lives a life at one hundred miles and hour always. A soul that has traveled continents and back, overcome heartbreak, experienced the purest of love, is steeped in luck for the family and true friends she has around her and is humbled from the majestic experiences of being a parent. This book was written to be a reminder that there is passion in every corner of life, there are unexpected days of true happiness yet to come and that even the toughest of times do not remain forever. The collection contains varying styles and themes, but the majority aim to read to you a story wrapped in the verses of poem which can relate to each and every heart and mind. You and I may not take the same message from a poem, we may not read it in the same way, yet we will all relate to the words on some level and be catapulted back in time to a memory or in years to come, the words may tiptoe into your thoughts and a smile may threaten to turn up the corners of your lips.

    Why were marvelous and enigmatic ancient statues that did no one any harm desecrated? Is there a danger in dwelling too much on the past? Is a powerful sense of grievance always justified? Can humans indefinitely rely on being able to access the Earth's resources? These stories are a collection of personal reflections on a few selected events and issues. Nothing more. I offer no judgments, answers or solutions. My purpose is simply to offer up new and alternate perspectives without condemning the beliefs and viewpoints of anyone. Sanctimony and righteousness divide and split asunder but a spirit of respectful tolerance and understanding allows all to flourish.
