A hundred poems, chosen from more than eight hundred. The colours of the heart, one for each.
Devotion sits next to heartbreak. Satire sits next to tenderness. That is not an editorial decision — it is simply how a heart works, and the book follows it rather than tidying it up.
A hundred poems drawn from thirty-five years of writing. Several of them have since become songs, which is why the words on those tracks were finished long before a note of music existed.
More poems, outside the book, are collected on the poems page.
