A selection of poems 2000-2016. They are a miscellany, each written with feeling at a specific moment of Josephine’s life. They are not, however, placed here in chronological order but in an arrangement that suits the spirit of their significance.This second edition contains an additional four new poems written in 2018.

For me, poetry is engendered by sadness or joy; pensiveness or nostalgia.  It is those emotions that I try to capture in my poems.
