Roy Taylor
|
 |
Roy Taylor was born in Old Colwyn, North Wales. He spent the early years of his life in Wales. He moved to Bolton when he was in his twenties. He married there and brought up a family with two boys. His early interests were barbershop singing, and joining some choral societies. Not being a great orator, he found that putting his thoughts on to paper gave him some satisfaction. This had progressed to seeing the funny, (or sometimes sad) side of life in form of rhyme. Now retired, and at seventy-one, he still enjoys putting on a pair of boots, and wandering on the moors.

Roy Taylor was born in Old Colwyn, North Wales. Not being a great orator, he found that putting his thoughts on to paper gave him some satisfaction.
His poetry is motivated usually by life’s endeavours, and personal likes and dislikes as with ‘Clause B 11 exceptions’ – all the small print in the insurance policies.
Or of course, as with ‘Garlic pearl’, a pure hatred of garlic had lead to the writing of this poem. Sometimes he is downright silly as with, “Butcher’s Mis-steak”.
He wrote this poem just to amuse himself. Hopefully, his poems will amuse others as well.
