George was born in Liverpool (1944) of
Welsh/Irish parentage. Brought up in North
Wales, he joined the army (Royal Engineers)
aged seventeen and travelled the world over.
In 1984 he retired from the army, married
Ermine and later to moved to Westerlo,
Belgium. In 1993 his heart problems began
and in 2002 he was diagnosed with
Parkinson’s disease. In 2007 he received a
book of poems written by his American friend
Dolly and he decided to have a go at writing
poetry. The
rest is history! |

The poems in this book are based on me, family,
friends, doctors and other people involved in my
life. Comedy & Tragedy could be my middle names and
this is reflected in my style of poetry. It is a bit
raw in places and risqué in others. This first time
effort is my way of demonstrating that life goes on,
regardless of personal circumstances. A shaking
right hand makes my writing meander and hence I call
that 'poetry in motion'.
