Geoff Collier was born in Melbourne Australia and been around since 1943 but only started writing poetry about 8 years back.
He married Wendy 40 years ago and raised two sons who both now also have beautiful children of their own. He has spent almost all of his working life in the building industry except for a short break of 3 years starting back in 1991. During this period he was fortunate enough to manage a children’s book club and promote good reading to children in an age range of pre-school to mid teens. With access to almost every book on the market he found reviewing and selecting titles to please each age group a most rewarding challenge. He has now written verse in a wide range of topics and styles but favours ballad and romantic themes with a bit of humour for good measure. He finds that poetry provides a medium of expression unequalled in any other forum and can be as heavy or as light as the heart desires. It can make you think or make you cry and, if it’s good enough, make you want to read it over again. He hopes you enjoy the work you find here by his fellow poets and himself and encourages you to take up the pen yourself and enjoy this wonderful pastime.

Eddie Lundon was born in 1937 in Scotland Rd in the very heart and soul of Liverpool. He was an intelligent boy who won a scholarship to the higher school but refused to go and went to the same school as his peers. He joined the post office after leaving school and then did his army service before rejoining the post office. It was here in 1962 that he married his beloved Winnie. He became a docker in 1969 at a time when the great Liverpool docks were just beginning to feel the pinch of modernisation. He contracted cancer in his early 30’s but beat it. This prompted him to start taking sick folk to Lourdes in the hope of healing them. He continued this for 15 years. He ran the Scotland Rd junior football league for many years and was very well known in the Liverpool amateur football scene as a manager, organiser, coach, mentor and did just about every job going to ensure the league thrived. He contracted cancer for a second time at the age of 57 and fought bravely for two years before it got the better of him. It is testament to his charitable nature and giving life that hundreds attended his funeral with most having to stand outside.

Rols Sperling was born in Ipswich to a European blend of mainly Dutch and English with many other nationalities vying for position. This helped him to formulate his desire to see the world in all tones that grey would allow. He never comes to judgment upon anyone and expects the same in return. He has had many jobs and employers in his life and lived in the country, town and city. He has five children with a span of 21 years between eldest and youngest. He has been a keen poet since a young man and has also written plays and a number of songs which he continues to play extremely badly on piano and guitar. He whistles in the key of scream!

Paul Jevons is a born and bred Liverpudlian. His hobbies include playing acoustic guitar (a novice but improving steadily) and walking in the wilds. He is inspired by his love of nature – mother earth and its inhabitants, the landscape, the flora and the fauna, its form and textures, its scent and sound. Paul loves to look beyond nature’s outward appearance and explore, feel and reflect on emotions inspired by its multitude facets and to observe and explore nature’s interaction with itself. He respects the life of all creatures, insects and all (no salt for the slugs) and sees them all as having a story to tell and a life to be valued and lived. He also loves art both from the experiential aspect as viewer and as a glimpse of the artist’s expression. He does admit though to being something of an art traditionalist, much preferring classical to modern art. Paul is a sensitive soul who wears his heart on his sleeve and writes from it (no! not the sleeve). You may have gathered by now that Paul is a romantic. He has a great love of, and is inspired by, many things. Most of all is his love for his partner, Theresa.

Maura Mc Creave has lived for fifty-two years in Northern Ireland. French teacher by trade, poet, by desire. .I have no formal training in the Art of poetry, and only started putting pen to paper two years ago. Writing poetry is my hobby and most of what I write just tumbles from my experience of life to date. Things can only get better!
