Peter D Hehir is a Published Poet and Author from Birmingham, England. His unique and eclectic style has earned him the affectionate title, among his peers, as The Brummie Bard. Now at the relatively young age of 37, Peter has Four Full Poetry Collections Published and One War and Remembrance Collection to commemorate all the brave people who gave their lives so we could live.
Born and raised in the heart of Birmingham, Peter is a great advocate for this City and has always cited this in a number of his poems, ‘Pigeon Park’, ‘Peaky Blinders’ and ‘Curzon Street’, to name just a few. Together with this and his deep rooted Irish Heritage, he has drawn on past influences and present day hopes and struggles to create a vast array of poems, which can now be considered work of pure literature art.
Although Peter has been writing since the age of 13, his major breakthrough, within poetry circles, came in 2020 with his most profound and heartfelt poem – ‘The World is Closed’. This beautiful piece of Poetry quickly went viral around the world, capturing the hearts and minds of people on every continent. It is this imagination and subtle poetic tone that has helped Peter to become revered in poetry circles.
In 2021 Peter released his latest full collection of poetry – ‘Seeking Whispers’, a poignant an even more eclectic follow up to his previous release – ‘Duvet Days’. Within this collection his style resonates and his unique way with words have earned him plaudits from people far and wide, young and old, as he has the ability to speak to the soul through the power of words.
It has been said by RSAB Radio, “Peter is a true wordsmith with a Poetic voice, that will resonate through this generation to the next.”
Further collections are due to be released by Peter, with an unique book of Poetic Ditty’s, tilted – ‘Wit Happens’ due out in February 2022.
