Description

Tom Adams is a contemporary street poet based in Bath, Somerset, known for creating instant personalised poetry for passers-by. In just 10 to 15 minutes, he crafts unique, handwritten poems inspired by real people, real emotions, and everyday life, capturing the essence of the human experience in a moment.

Often writing at remarkable speed while his audience waits, Tom’s creative process feels almost electric—like the words are arriving faster than they can be written.

Perfect for readers who enjoy inspirational poetry, artistic writing, and unique poetry collections, these poems bring spontaneity and authenticity to every page.
