Poetry
I write almost exclusively in my mother tongue, which is Welsh. With a French partner, I do have some personal poems written in English (which you’l probably never see!), and I have not yet found la muse Française.
I’d like to think I’m quite a versatile poet. If I wrote in the same tone, on the same meters, about the same subjects all the time it would be quite tedious for me, as well as for you – the audience. So my muse keeps shape-shifting, for everyone’s sake.
What you’ll mostly find here are poems for special occasions, some personal poems, political rants or poems from the drawer. I accept commissions.

D.G. Jones, Selyf neu Yncl Defi
Yn gynharach eleni bu farw David Griffith Jones, neu Selyf, fel y byddai’r helyw yn ei adnabod. Roedd Selyf wrth gwrs athro cerdd dant ac yn un o hoelion wyth cerddorol Eifionydd.
