Commissions

Commission a Personalised Poem

There is something truly special about a poem written just for you - words crafted to capture a moment, a person, or a feeling that can’t be found anywhere else. An individualised poem is more than a gift; it’s a keepsake of emotion, memory, and meaning, preserved in rhythm and language. Whether heartfelt, humorous, or quietly reflective, your poem will be written with care, sensitivity, and a deep attention to detail.

How It Works

Commissions start at £30 for a poem of around 6–8 stanzas.
This fee covers not only the writing itself but also the thoughtful exchange of ideas via email to ensure the poem feels truly personal and authentic to you. Each commission also includes a digital print of the finished poem - ready to share, frame, or keep safe for years to come. For physical prints, as well as longer poems or pieces that require additional research or consultation, prices will vary accordingly. Every project is unique, and I’m happy to discuss your ideas and budget to find the perfect format and tone.

My current turnaround time is one month from you first reaching out to me. However I can work to a quicker deadline for a small additional fee if needed.

Your poem will never be shared or published by me: it is yours to keep and to share with those you hold dear.

Perfect for Life’s Most Meaningful Moments

A commissioned poem makes a beautiful and memorable gift for countless occasions, including:

A new baby – a keepsake for parents, grandparents, or for the child to treasure when they’re older
Mother’s or Father’s Day – a poem that helps us find the words we really want to say
Weddings – a personal touch for a ceremony or a timeless gift for the couple
Baptisms and Christenings – a lyrical blessing or celebration of new life
Graduations – marking achievement and new beginnings
Moving out or new homes – capturing a chapter’s end and a fresh start

Whatever the moment, your commissioned poem will be created to reflect it - unique, heartfelt, and entirely yours.
