I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

Thank you. I wish my poems could live up to nature’s beauty, but they are and will only ever be a pale reflection.

Thank you. It took much too long to compose. Several rewrites and I’m still not happy with it.

Just stopped by to thank you for your recent like on Shift Key and peruse your busy site. I zipped through most of your haiku; thanks, excellent read.

Thank you for taking the time to read them. I am no poet or wordsmith, I just like to play with stories and emotions.
