\nI’ve just added two poems to my site. The first is a rondeau poem called Green Hills Of Erin. I have never been to Ireland but I’ve always thought it looks really beautiful in photos and I wrote this poem when I was imagining how I might feel about it if it was my homeland. To read Green Hills Of Erin <\/em><\/span>click here<\/em><\/span><\/a>. The second poem is called Snatched Away and is about my brother in-law Mick who died when he was only 36 years old. I wrote it 7 1\/2 years after he died when I had a vivid dream about when I was sitting with him in the intensive care unit and woke up feeling like it had just happened. You can read it <\/em><\/span>here<\/em><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve also added another page to the unicorn gallery. This page features the wonderful custom made graphic set that was part of the prize package I received\u00c2\u00a0when my poem, called Friend<\/a>, won first place in the <\/em><\/span>Moonglade Designs<\/em><\/span><\/a> 2005 poetry contest. <\/em><\/span>I’ve also had some fun with applets on this page and it has a water applet, a snow applet and, one I’ve never used before, a colour rotating applet. I hope you enjoy it! Click on the unicorn at right to be magically taken there \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/span><\/td>\n\"Image\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I’m also very happy to announce that my cinquain entitled Untarnished won first place in the 4th quarter 2005 Little Bitty Poetry Competition. Untarnished isn’t on my website as yet but you can read it, along with the poems that placed second and third, <\/em><\/span>here<\/em><\/span><\/a>. I’d also like to let you know that two of my recent cinquain poems are appearing in the current issue of Amaze: The Cinquain Journal. They are titled Writer’s Block and Nightmare and you can check out the issue they’re in <\/em><\/span>here<\/em><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n
