Inspired by this week's Haiku challenge:

distant hills …
beyond the gate
winter stillness

Clive is a sometime philosopher, thinker, dreamer, birdwatcher, poet, and occasional writer. Living and writing in beautiful North Wales.

He draws inspiration from nature, especially birds, which he has been watching for as long as he can remember

Clive’s haiku have been published in the Wales Haiku Journal, Presence, Hedgerow, Blo͞o Outlier Journal, ‘Failed Haiku’, tsuri-dōrō journal, and most recently in the Scarlet Dragonfly Journal. He can be found on the Drifting Sands Poets Hub.

Eyes Open Wide

My music is freely improvised, usually on VST synthesizers, sometimes fretless bass, guitar, occasionally electric viola or cello, with a variety of effects pedals. Solo music is performed live and recorded as 'FlownBlue'.  I am also in four improvising duos: 'Windfall Light' (with Jim Tetlow), 'Abstract Blue' (with Kevin Buckland), 'Light Fragments' (with Steve Escott), and Szukanie (with Michał Wojciechowski). I'm a member of the Quadelectronic improv group based in Leicester, UK. Duo music is all on Bandcamp - links below.
