Synopsis

When I Finally Get There is my second book of poetry. All my words come from a place I cannot explain. But I do tend to think ahead and have always done so. As with my earlier book of poems, Sense of Words, I began writing after a near-fatal head injury in December 2011, which left me with amnesia for over four months. I began writing again in March 2012, and have not stopped since. Poems just come to me, and I can easily write eight in an afternoon.My thoughts are always looking into the distance and to faraway places.I won top prize for poetry from Scotland's best-selling newspaper when I was ten years old, but didn't begin writing again until after my head injury. I write about romance, love, nature, childhood, and life in general.Many say I am a born poet since I never studied poetry.Bobby Ferguson of Glasgow, Scotland, was told in 2008 that he had eighteen months to two years to live and would never walk again. Seventeen months later, he had a thirty percent chance of surviving a cancer operation, "so I should not be here." Instead, he expresses himself in his evocative poetry.
