Thoroughly enjoyed the Creativity in Research Conference organised by the South West Yorkshire NHS Foundation. Shared my journey to becoming a poet and the infamous Rhyme Tennis. We had fun. Thank you for inviting me. An insightful, interesting and enjoyable day.

Though things may feel impossible Feeling hopeless and alone Remember however improbable Flowers grow through stone. #WaitingRoomPoet #poetry

As there are tears there is always laughter To every question we can find an answer As easily as we see hate we can see... #poetry

Somewhere over there Where priority is to care Where living is of ease Liberty is partnered with peace Somewhere to be free Is where I want to be. #poetry

Moved by the play 'My Thousand Year Old Land (A Song For BiH)' I was inspired to write this. I'd heard how only partial remains of a loved one have been found to bury, it hit differently this time. Two bones to bury. #poetry 11th July #SrebrenicaGenocide 30yrs Remembering Srebrenica

An honour to be part of the Remembering Srebrenica event organised by @6million_plus This is one of the poems I read today on the theme of Remember Yesterday Act Today. It's called To Value Lives. Remembering Srebrenica #poetry

It's South Asian Heritage Month so I thought I'd share this. Food is art, and must always have... The Garnish. #southasianheritagemonth #poetry #SouthAsianCooking

Wrote this for the Timed Challenge at last week's @bradfordopenmic. 59.2 (I think it was) is only good enough for fourth place (it'sthat good). The theme was peace. A moment of peace #poetry

Shackled to a darkness of history
