Poems by me






Me & My boys

My two grandsons
Anton n Emyr
I love you so much
Whilst holding you dear

Two boys so full of love
We see it each day
Your growing so fast
In each and every way

Antons the elder
By a few years
No doubt when their older
They'll sink a few beers

Emyr the younger
He looks up to us
With smiles so cute
In us he trusts

They both have a song
One of their own
Sung by their baboo
In his unique tone.

I love you my grandsons
Each and every day
I'm proud of you both
In every way






What next.....

Cancer takes you on a journey 
One no-one really wants
It's taken much from me 
From going to the Pub and visiting restaurants 

I can't give in 
I won't let it win 
A new life for me 
awaits to begin 

I have so much to live for
Friends and family would say 
I'm taking things easy 
By living each and everyday

I'm getting really stronger 
Fitter is my aim
Being Cancer free is my goal
One day I will proclaim




Cancer My Journey 

You have Cancer 
That's what they said 
I was alone in the hospital 
Laying on a bed

They left me there
Alone in my thoughts 
Then offered me everything 
There was loads of support

Cancer is scary
Gave me a real fright
But it picked on the wrong guy
I was up for this fight 

You'll have chemo & radiotherapy 
That's just to start 
The treatment I had 
near dam took my heart.

The operation was next 
To remove all my bowel 
It took many hours 
Our NHS have special powers 

I owe them so much 
They gave me new life 
They returned this husband 
back to his wife.


MY SISTERS 
Kerry and Alison my sisters in crime 
It's blood that relates us
Your both just divine

I'm blessed to have you both
Here in my life
Never again separated
Cut through like a knife.

Years they have passed us
We may have missed much
But never again must we ever loose touch.

Both greatful and blessed
I couldn't ask for another
Your my Sisters I love you
Best wishes your brother 




MY D
I have a wife
Whos like no other
Shes one of a kind
A nanny and a mother

Your my best friend
From the day we first met
You won over my heart
I have no regret

We are stronger together
We make quite the team
A love such as ours
It feels like a dream

We've had some rough times
We came through it all
Our love keeps us together
From what I recall

Be it known
I'll love you forever
A love such as ours
It's like no other.

So thank you for loving me
My best friend
My soul-mate
My beautiful D

Time Has Come

Case packed but there's no flight Since being diagnosed with Stage 3 Bowel Cancer on April 13 this year my family & I have really been through a mixture of emotions. There's certainly been plenty of lows and there has been a few highs. Once the initial shock of hearing i have cancer had settled in I wanted to share my journey in hope it will show what one person goes through and get the message out about the symptoms of this deadly disease. I wanted to show Bowel Cancer is not restricted to older persons as some in the medical world still believe.  I am the youngest of 7 siblings, I was a marathon runner, relatively fit and was in good shape, I managed a cash and carry centre worked really hard, so why did I get Cancer? Why did it choose me? questions I have asked myself many many times, its only when going through this process you realise Cancer does not discriminate. Its aggressive in its attack on your body and therefore the treatment has to be just as aggressive if not ...

The operation results

Family is everything to me On 27th November I completed my last parkrun for a while supported by my running group Roath Park Runners who gave me a guard of honour at the finish. On the 29th Nov, I had my bowel cancer operation the surgeons took just 7hrs 30min to remove my large bowel, giving me a colostomy Stoma for the rest of my life. After the operation, I was moved to the high-dependency ward where I spent 2 nights being looked after by our NHS nurses who took great care of my family and I. They were empathetic and professional in their duties.  After 2 days I would spend the next 10 days recovering from the operation and the effects of the anaesthetic. I also had to find a way of getting through what was an absolute nightmare of a time. I was sick which I was told later was called Bile it was green in colour and made me quite poorly. We had to manage the pain I was now in waking up at all different times of the night to have my medication.  After a while, I was starting ...
