SEDONA POET

WELCOME TO

MY WORLD

Roger Blakiston was born in Northumberland, England. He is a professional magician, author, visionary, and poet. He has a vast knowledge of the geography, history, culture, art, and languages of other nations.

From palaces and castles to bomb shelters, for royalty, and for those who have been outcast, he has traveled across the world’s oceans and walked over mine fields to perform his magic. Roger’s ancestors were famous explorers, pirates, and royalty. He was born into a family of writers and travelers with a deep sense of imagination. He has walked in the footsteps of both great leaders and prophets, and over lands which have witnessed terrible wars.

In 2014, he published his first book, The Spiritual Stage. In 2016 he published Forest of Song, a compilation of his poetry spanning nearly sixty years. The following 2 years he wrote another 120 poems, resulting in the publishing of his third book, Meadow of Verse, in the spring of 2018.
