Me rompió. Se siente como si me hubiera roto. ¿Por qué alguien se arriesgaría voluntariamente a eso de nuevo?

El amor no siempre es suave y sencillo. Puede ser desastroso y doloroso. Pero no significa que deje de ser la cosa más increíble que te pueda pasar.

Not long after Dave signed the contract for TSL to publish his work, on 6 December 2016, the night the final proof arrived from the printer, Dave passed away. He never saw his work in print.

In addition to writing all the poems, Dave also drew the pictures which illustrate the book. Other drawings of his can be found on the cover of Michael’s Magic Motor Car and in Rhys’s adventures. Dave was a member of Phrase Writers in Hillingdon where he shared his many talents. It was thanks to group members that the book was able to be published – they transcribed and edited Dave’s poems when he was too ill to do so.

I never got to meet Dave and only ‘knew’ him from friends at his writers’ group.

As David explains in the Introduction to his Little Orange Book:

My writings and drawings came about with the need to occupy my time when retirement arrived. Having no intention of aiming for a Booker prize or becoming a Poet Laureate, I wrote because it amused me to do so. One day however, I found a reason to dust it all off, tidy it up and see what I could about turning it into cash. I decided to become a fundraiser for a charity that, initially knowing little of it, I had reason to gain firsthand knowledge of the valuable and much needed work they are involved in. I am supporting Macmillan Cancer Support and all profit from my work goes straight to that caring organisation. Most of the stuff within is light-hearted, a bit silly sometimes, and now and again has a twist at the end. I have included very few serious poems and there are a couple of brain teasers (not at all easy) to test your little grey cells.

Please support Macmillan Cancer Support by purchasing both of Dave’s Little Orange Books: The secret life of creatures and other poems and The girls in the queue and other poems.

The secret life of creatures and other poems

is split into three parts, Part 2 being a little more serious and prose-like than the others.

Part One: The Secret Life of Creatures When Bella met Lenny Big is Beautiful Princely Delusions Cocky Little… The Suburban Fox That’s Me in the Shellsuit Really Rather Fabulous

Part Two: Our Soldiery Portina Brook The Family Have Been Informed Within the Sound of St. Bartholomew’s Bell July 1917

Part Three: The Secret Life of Creatures – continued Independants Falklands Stanley Ian’s Plea to Janice A Mother’s Son The Last in Line The Prowler The Plaintive Cry of the Goldfish

For a taster, here’s some of WHEN BELLA MET LENNY

She loved to swim in waters dark and muddy, For Isabella was aquatic to the point of genius, She longed however for a pal or p’raps a buddy, Did the large and rather heavy, lady hippopotamus.

A problem then had blighted this poor lasses life, You see, Dear Isabella was, in size, enormous, She doubted that she’d ever gain the title wife, So convinced was she her chances were quite dubious
