Introduction

..............

This volume, like the previous three volumes was created from poems written during a period, when I was writing at least one poem every day. I did this for over 1000 days.

In this volume, we again cover the Christmas - New Year period. In this case, there are several poems relating to this festive period. In some ways, it is a bit of a challenge to write something different each year. Was I up to the challenge? I believe so. Do you believe it? Only one way to find out.

Also in this volume, you will find poems on dancing, hearing aids, self-confidence, being recognised by others, languages, preparing for an operation, saying thank you, and a couple of surprises along the way.

That is enough from me. It is hoped that you will find what follows of value, of interest, and worth pausing and pondering.

I now invite you to read Volume Seven of “The Definitive Collection.”
