I am delighted to announce that my new poetry collection, “Passing Through: some thoughts on life and death” is now available to purchase in the Kindle store.
Book Description:
In the last week of January 2025, poet K Morris suffered a seizure whilst at home. This was rapidly followed by several other seizures, , and the discovery that he was suffering from a brain abscess, which required an urgent operation.
In this book the poet describes his thoughts and feelings as he grapples with his own mortality. Other poems touch on the mundane rhythms of hospital life, and the poet’s yearning to return to the great outdoors and Mother Nature.

I was pleased to receive the below review of my collection of poetry, More Poetic Meanderings:
“I am a big fan of Kevin’s poems and I was excited to hear he had another poem book out. I couldn’t wait to meander through it. It is different from my usual reads and I think that is why I like them so much. For me they add a sense of peace and calm and helps me to restore my energy. There are so many wonderful poems throughout this book, my favourite being Nature and my favourite room but they are all really good. When I need to relax I will definitely be picking this book up.
Check out Kevin’s other poem books on his website:
I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.”

I was delighted to receive the following 2 reviews of my recently published collection Leaving and Other Poems.
Perspectivepower:
“Leaving and Other Poems is the latest in a long line of wonderful books of poetry written by Kevin Morris. For those who desire to find humor, logic, passion, and pleasure in poetry, then this is a terrific source of these things and more. Kevin’s observations, interpretations, and imagination will speak to you regardless of your walk of life. You may even find yourself inspired to put pen to paper and write your thoughts out, whether or not you ever share those writings. We can thank our lucky stars that Kevin does indeed share what he writes!”

Victoria Zigler:
“This is another excellent collection of poems by this author, some of which are thought-provoking, while others are amusing. I can easily relate to the poem “I Cut Bread” having been in a similar situation with a dog of my own, and “Autumn’s Dead Leaves” was another poem I really loved from this collection.”
