He has also written the occasional newspaper column for the Pontypridd Observer. He is founder and organiser of the Welsh Poetry Competition which seeks to discover new talent.
Famous Welsh writer John Evans has said:
"Dave Lewis is a poet, teacher, zoologist, web designer, global traveller, husband, father, newspaper columnist, and so many other things. He is a 21st Century Renaissance Man; a genuine multitasker; a man who's life history and work reflects and documents so many of the changes that effect us all today.
"His poetry is honest and direct. Each word is effective. Each word is easily understood. Unlike so many others today, he writes from the heart and soul, from raw emotion; he has drawn on his wide ranging knowledge and experience to evolve a style, an elevated poetic diction, which eschews artifice and ornate language. To do otherwise, to court obscurity, to write for just a small coterie, would be for him to miss the mark. Dave Lewis' poetry is for everyone, not just the metropolitan intelligentsia, or Arts Council elite, or pseudo University academics.
"Although a true son of his native South Wales Valleys, his work moves from the local, to the national, to the international; he aspires to a universal discourse, beyond the here and now, and beyond class, or localness, or country.
"His subject matter is both urban and naturalistic and reflects not only a love of towns and cities but also his awareness and passion for the wild landscapes that lie beyond - from the wet streets of his home town, Pontypridd, and the sunlit switchback's of San Francisco, to the lush, green, Breconshire mountains, and the dry, arid, deserts of Kenya
"This excellent collection of Dave Lewis' work is highly recommended and it should help establish poetry to its rightful place as a vital form of artistic expression for everyone."
