Tom's poetry is Raw, Emotional, Funny, and at times sad enough to bring out the tissues. He always tells it ' Like it is ', and it is always from the heart.
Tom has this gift of writing from ' Other people's shoes ', as well as his own.
His life in The Military has inspired many of the Soldier/War poems, and his fight against Cancer reflects the sadness and trauma of this terrible illness. Tom's poetry has already gathered a large following Worldwide, and there is something inside this book for everyone.
This book is a collection of poems that I have written and am slowly adding to.
Love as deep as a bottomless chasm -
Beware of where you tread.
Love as dark as an underground cavern -
Some things are better left unsaid.
Beware of what you let them know,
Of what you let them hear.
For though it is said in innocence,
Someday they will make you fear.
If you tread near the edge,
You are certain to fall,
Your 'lover' will make sure of it.
For though you may laugh,
Their motive is sinister,
Your heart will be split in half.
For they are unafraid of what you ever may think,
And that, dear friend, is the most dangerous thing,
When, of Love's ledge, you stand on the brink.
Love's Dangerous Ledge
