About Al Turley-Poet
Unremitting optimist, independent observer, consummate lover of life’s many
adventures and the commendable ability to invent and re-invent his
circumstances with resilience and imagination, this guy knows how to travel
light. Possessions mean nothing; being there to engage wholeheartedly in life
itself is his version of supreme wealth.
Apart from his many journeys, achievements, misadventures, losses and
gains and despite age or circumstance, his has been the quintessential road
less travelled. Throughout, he remains a devoted explorer and interrogator of
the written word, wrestling it into shape through poetry, prose and commentary.
It is his driving curiosity and purpose which gave birth to this, his first collection
of Rhymes and Ruminations on how best to capture the experience and privilege
of simply 'being here' to partake in this awesome adventure we call Life.”
