Pictures in Poetry

Hi, I'm Alexis. My home is in London, England.

When I was 13, two friends and myself wrote a book.

We took turns writing. It was very exciting finding out

every break at school, what each of us had written

about our heroes or heroines. I have always loved

putting words together.

After bringing up a family, I developed a serious,

debilitating and painful illness.

I don't expect you to say Ahh!. I mention it because

it is due to that I took up writing poems and short

stories. It has helped me to be involved in other

things, taken me out of myself and has become

an overwhelmingly interesting hobby.

My aim is to give my readers poetry that appeals, in

that it can be liked and understood by everyone.
