Constantly casting, watching and praying
The next slight ripple predicted a bite,
A silent fisherman, reeling and baiting,
Awaited his prey till day became night.

About Me
- John Pemberton's Bitesize Poems
- You may already have read about me on the cover of my book HOW TO BE A POET (Arima Publishing, 272 pages, ISBN 9781845492618), including the fact that I was born in Manchester, England in 1930. I pursued literary and linguistic studies at Manchester University for an Honours BA, which led to a career in librarianship, a Masters Degree from Warwick University, and an Honorary Doctorate from Buckingham University. If you have also dipped into the book you will know that I favour poems with metre and rhyme. You can find further particulars by visiting Arima Publishing, using the link at the top of this page.
