Today’s poem is influenced by York and the Vikings. It’s funny that me and Andrew live in York and we have the strong family link to Orkney which is also influenced by the Viking’s. Well I hope you enjoy this weeks poem.

This is my latest Poem. I decided to create a poem about my mental health. This poem a started writing at the end of 2018 when I was in hospital for 2 ½ months with pneumonia and sepsis. I have now finally finished it. I hope you all like it. The main inspiration behind it is my “Bipolar Affective Disorder” and the two sides of the disorder as it can be a battle between the two. I hope you like and enjoy it.

This Poem is about the neothlic history of Orkney. I found inspiration for this particular poem from an amazing book called “Orkney - A Historical Guide” written by Caroline Wickham-Jones. If you want to know about the history of Orkney I would strongly advise you getting a copy of the updated edition. I hope you enjoy it anyway.

This is a Poem inspired by our trips to Orkney and how it makes me feel. We are lucky to have a second home there and it is one of the best places I have ever been too. Poems of Adventures Lived and The Ones Still to Come! Enjoy
