This book contains a collection of poetry written in the 90s by a young writer who found publication at the age of 11 years old. Many of the poems herein are simple observations of places and concepts but some are expressions of opinion about some of the harsher aspects of our world as well as fantastical imaginings and the occasional humorous narrative. All the poems were written between the ages of 11 and 18 and chronicle the reflections of a teenage mind and provide an interesting comparison with life today. So if you wish to relax in the imagery of Lydford Gorge or learn how to create a diamond, or even imagine what it is like to be a piece of office stationery, then please immerse yourself in these pages and make your own interpretations.
