The 155th Sonnet
A lyrical journey through heartbreak, healing, and the quiet spaces in between. Each verse is a whisper to the friend, the lover, the stranger who has ever felt too much and said too little. Written in the hush between memory and longing, this collection bends language to hold grief, joy, and the ache of being alive.
Things Kilimanjaro Saw
A soul-stirring collection of sonnets that gazes through the ancient eyes of Africa's tallest sentinel. From the snow-capped silence of Kilimanjaro's peak to the sun-scorched plains below, these poems capture timeless reflections on nature, resilience, and the human spirit.
🏆 Recognition
I am honoured to be the Winner of the Shorty Awards 2025, a testament to the resonance of these stories and the voices they carry.
