My name is Kim. I live in Belfast in Northern Ireland. I am 62 years of age. I am a semi retired civil servant working in admin. In my spare time I enjoy spending my time with my friends walking and going for coffee. My Christian faith is very important to me and I would describe myself as very contemplative. I belong to a church group in person and also a contemplative group online. My hobbies are taking photos, writing poems, reading and a bit of gardening. I am a vegetarian and enjoy cooking vegetarian meals. I am a great animal lover and at present my family consists of my 15 year old tabby cat April and my 15 year old Shih Tzu dog Ben. At present I am doing two online courses. One on nature writing and the other on poetry. I am new to writing poems and have only started a few months back. I am enjoying being part of this community and the people are very friendly and supportive. Written on 8th May 2024. Kim

For my wee back legs, they went downhill,
And oh it was such a bitter pill,
Over the hills and...

My Dog

Frolicking, jumping and running free,
I hope you know how much you mean to me,
Eyes like saucers and a button nose,
Peacefully sleeping I watch you dose.

Through mountains and forests and hills we'd climb,
I am so glad that you are mine,

My Cat

Your eyes are enchanting an emerald green,
Your coat is so soft as I watch you preen,
Tiny toes and tiny paws,
But one thing's for sure don't go near those claws!

You love your cuddles but your spirit is free,
And sometimes you say "don't...

2,000 Years From Now - A World without Humans - Short Story

No more, the humans were no more. Nature thrived without them. Paths became forests and grasslands. Animals became free to multiply and yet some were lost on the way. Tigers and rhinos had become extinct. Some birds had been shot down. Humans had...

A beautiful poem. I was on the edge of my seat reading it when the wolves turned up. I hoped the elk would not get eaten and I'm so glad he got away. Well done.
