'Human Nature' is a collection of stories and rhymes that has been gathered together for the first time in one volume, showing the author's versatility as a writer.
MD Blackburn began putting pen to paper in March 2009, having never written before. He often wonders where the words come from. He ranges from poetry to prose as he ponders life's past experiences, taking the reader back into a time when life was simple. He examines his own childhood and encourages the reader to explore their own nostalgia. His poetry and prose is intended to hold up a mirror. Readers may see themselves in his words and feel a ripple of surprise when they see where life's path has led.
Read on, question your own perceptions, find yourself… and most of all enjoy.
Excerpt
On the low waves, the boats like corks
Bob up and down on their anchors.
We need a cup of tea after Jen’s wade,
I had burnt my head, sat in the shade.
We stop and sit, sit and watch the world
Nothing like people, especially the old,
Looking after each other, as best they can,
Seemingly enjoying the rest of life’s plan.
