CREATIVE (60) from Derbyshire

Hello. I am semi-retired after a life of action and adventure. ( No, I did not serve in ze French Foreign Legion..). I have worked in TV and films and had stories , poems and articles published in the national press. I'm at a sort of transitional stage - not entirely sure what I want to do next. I went to university and trained as a teacher and am doing some part-time teaching at the moment. I do enjoy working with young people. It says in the little box opposite to this space, 'Tell the world about yourself here'. If only this little space could expand to fill a couple of volumes...Anyway, do drop me a note and you will find out more.

GEESE
Geese, my love, when flying in V formation,
take it in turns to be the leader. For the constant
strain of breaking walls of air is too great for a solo bird.
I was the leader of our formation for the best part of our
long journey and, when I could lead no more, I tumbled,
exhausted, into the ocean. You did not stop: your migrationary
pull was far too strong. Now you fly high above me
On a journey of fresh discovery.

Gosh. This is the hard bit..IDEALLY(!!) someone younger, not afraid of life and all its challenges, spiritual, courageous, bright, creative, but playful -can take a tease and give one! - also helps if reasonably slim, attractive, blonde, and has freckles!!!!! -but don't let this 'blue-print' put you off!!! - we all have our weaknesses!! ( Amazing how many people I hear from who don't READ or understand this bit!!) Poetic intensity aside, I DO have a great sense of fun - how else do you think I could have survived for so long in the mad world of media!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? Take care and good luck with your search...
