Recording Life Seasons

In my writing and art I endeavor to capture the seasons of life.

The season of our lives changes as we move through life and experience all it means to be human. Whether I am writing a story, a novel or a simple poem, I endeavour to capture the essence of who we are, where we come from, and to whom we belong. In my art work it is the cycle of life and the changes in the yearly seasons I seek to capture.








There Is a Season

To everything there is a season,

A time for every purpose under heaven,

A time to be born,

And a time to die,

A time to plant,

Amd a time to pluck what is planted,

A time to kill,

And a time to heal,

A time to break down,

And a time to build up,

A time to weep,

And a time to laugh,

A time to mourn,

And a time to dance,

A time to cast stones,

And a time to gather stones,

A time to embrace,

And a time to refrain from embracing,

A time to gain,

And a time to lose,

A time to keep,

And a time to throw away,

A time to tear,

And a time to sew,

A time to keep slience,

And a time to speak,

A time to love,


And a time to hate,

A time of war,

And a time of peace.

2010 School Workshops

Each year the committee carefully selects a number of schools to be involved in our Poetry Writing Workshops in Schools. This selection is based on written expression from the schools themselves. In addition to this, school workshops are heavily sponsored by the Ipswich City Council councillors.  Many of the councillors like to nominate a school of their choice in their own divisions.  If your school is in the Ipswich Council's boundaries and would like to take part in the 2011 Ipswich Poetry Feast schools' poetry workshops, then please consider returning your expression of interest forms when they are sent out."    The poets presenting workshops this year are Graham Nunn, Meredith Costian, David Stavanger
and Marco Gliori. See our links to find out more information on these poets.
