Arbour Aurora 2

This is my 2nd poetry anthology in the series 'Arbour Aurora' and my 3rd anthology overall… The poems span the period 2017 to 2021 inclusive and vary greatly in their subject matter but reflecting my journey musings and feelings particularly with regard to the natural environment of my local community in North Dublin, Ireland, and events of note.This writer’s approach to the environment and the Earth Mother is based on the principles enunciated in the 1970s. My writings help me to make sense of the value systems that inspire me and on which I try to build my philosophy of life, despite its complexities.
