MY ADVENTURES IN KENT

Dear Ed

Well we will have to go back right to the very beginning where it all started.

I was 22 when I was first Introduced to Kent and from that day the spirit of Kent has never left me. I lived o­n a dairy farm in Fordcombe for 3 years working round the farm helping the farmer out delivering milk, bedding the cows down, getting them up for milking each evening, feeding them etc, It was a fair exchange for my accomodation and I loved every single minute of it.
 
As I said earlier the spirit of Kent engulfed me and I got carried away with it and began to lose my grip o­n this reality and moved into a whole new magikal reality oh wow It totally blew me away It was the most amazing experience I have ever had and It was down to this that I ended up getting sectioned in a mental hospital for a month because people didn't understand me or what had happened to me they just classed me as crazy.
 
It was after I came out of the hospital and returned to the farm that I first began writing my poetry.

I kept my poetry hidden until last year for fear of the hospital situation arising again, but then I met my partner who recognized something in me and understood me and I decided I could trust him and showed him my poetry, I had never shown It to anyone until this day, not even my own family and it was his encouragement and positive attitude to my work that I finally plucked up the courage to take my fears by the horns and face them head o­n and began to post my poetry o­n the Internet.

I was completely overwhelmed by the positive response I received to my work and how well it has been received globally.

I am now In the process of becoming published and last week I revisited kent to share my good news with the farmer and his family and to visit the place where it all began, where my heart is, where I want to be to come back and write my book there.
 
It was also my 40th birthday and I celebrated it at the enchanted forest oh wow what a magikal experience that was, It all felt so familiar just like they had been expecting me like I was coming home and I was greeted by the spirit of the eagle the o­ne who lives in the enchanted forest, but that is another story, but his owner should have his own tv show he is talent just waiting to happen.

I have written a poem in honour of that meeting.
 
Well Wednesday was my last day here and it was a very tearful day before I left though I had a few special deliveries to make.

I began at the enchanted forest and delivered a bundle of poems to say thank you for the wonderful time I had there It made my stay here even more special and then I popped o­ne in each of the post boxes In Groombridge, Langton and Fordcombe, a few to the village pub in Fordcombe and another to Angel House in Groombridge and finally I scattered a few around the cottage we had been staying in, I just wanted to spread a little magic around Kent to say thank you from the bottom of my heart.
 
Thank you.
 
with love and light Starchild
