Written in or around 1985 these poems open my soul to the world of some of my personal thoughts at that time. Losing a loved business, wife, and house brought me to my knees. A serious car crash, bailiffs at my door, and having to rely on family and friends to raise my morale was a very difficult period at that time. In 1982 opening my first business in retail jewellery was an exciting time, however it was short lived. By 1984 the landlords increased their rent, service charge, and the bank were not giving me an umbrella, as by now the showers had turned to a thunderstorm. My marriage was under pressure. As for children it was medically not possible at that time, due to my childhood illnesses, . A serious car crash saw me in hospital for three months with many broken bones. Finally in 1986 saw the closer of my jewellery business and a decline in my mental health, and a divorce.
