Here you will can find poetry and access my blog. I love beauty and the beauty of language. I write in a lyrical style that is clear and understandable. I write about lots of different things. The places and animals of my native Australia are important to me. You can find some examples in “Earth Music”, available on this website as a free download. I am also intensely interested in areas of social justice. Indigenous issues form part of this. The environment and relationships are also fundamental concerns. https://www.neilcreighton.com/reviews daily 0.75 2020-06-18 https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop daily 0.75 2025-03-10 https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop/p/my-bloods-country monthly 0.5 2025-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/0fb271e9-d227-42d0-8c15-46c2496747bc/cropped_IMG_1067.jpeg Shop - My Blood's Country - cropped_IMG_1067.jpeg https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop/p/the-colquhoun-chronicles monthly 0.5 2025-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/0f66b46f-e90d-412d-9020-d4e8daf14136/cc_cover.jpeg Shop - The Colquhoun Chronicles https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop/p/rock-dreaming monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1622861246074-37592ORSH2LC7W4RA3VJ/rock_dreaming.jpg Shop - Rock Dreaming https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop/p/8x0prvlc3pwzaasfdjf12osvhr5qku monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1622860275784-76C6BWDURKOS1BIEK18T/Awakening_Cover.jpeg Shop - Awakening https://www.neilcreighton.com/shop/p/style-01-gs78j monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1592969769781-60MQTRMU25W63V2R3QFN/71wZ-KNE7bL.jpg Shop - Loving Leah https://www.neilcreighton.com/books daily 0.75 2025-09-13 https://www.neilcreighton.com/books/my-bloods-country monthly 0.5 2025-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/fbcc09e6-ad6a-49d8-b269-6be02d2642f9/IMG_1067.jpeg https://www.neilcreighton.com/books/the-colquhoun-chronicles monthly 0.5 2025-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1741651825811-CALEJ2B3VZAJFQSFGCNU/cc_cover.jpeg https://www.neilcreighton.com/books/rockdreaming monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1622861246074-37592ORSH2LC7W4RA3VJ/rock_dreaming.jpg Books - Rock Dreaming https://www.neilcreighton.com/books/project-two-5f54p monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://www.neilcreighton.com/books/project-one-5gle8 monthly 0.5 2025-03-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ee758543713db37c1b0b2e5/1598077321904-62NHYR0GF6CNQZ6RFK52/Awakening_Cover.jpeg Books - Awakening - In these poems we see the soaring height of imagination and poignant intensity of emotions.

Leah’s daughter Cordelia confronts her mother’s death and betrayal as she struggles back, through memory and nature’s healing power, to the deep love that informed her childhood world. Creighton masterfully captures the sorrow of watching a beloved parent shrink away under the baleful influence of selfish daughters and he renders Leah’s death scene with great power. You will not come away from this work unmoved, and you will be awed by the sense of hard-earned regeneration.

Each year he travels to his native land to treat the victims of terrorist explosions. meanwhile, his new country turns fearful, mean-spirited, eager to shut its doors. On the armature of this story Neil Creighton weaves a work at once epic and lyric. A gifted poet with something urgent to say possesses a powerful voice, especially when his indignation is disciplined and his imagination fired by empathy. Morteza offers memorable and vividly particular imagery; yet no reader will fail to feel its universality. —Robert Wexelblatt, author of Hsi-Wei Tales
