"Poets are probably the most generous people on earth. They give away what they treasure and prize most. I think that when a true poet succeeds in deeply voicing a personal feeling, in some inscrutable way it becomes a feeling common to all men. If there were five minutes in the life of each one of us, then we would say that poetry is life and life is poetry."

The links on the left will take you to some of my
favorite poetry. I recommend finding
a time when you can relax, be a little introspective and
let it sink in. There’s some good stuff here, and I’ll try
to add more every now and again. Let me know what you think
in the guest book. Although I myself am more of a closet poet and rarely feel comfortable sharing the things I write, I’ve decided to include some of my own poems written many years ago. While including some of my own stuff, I have no pretension of being on the same level as those others I have posted. That explains, perhaps, why mine are at the bottom. Anyway, the last link leads to the only
poem of mine that I’ve ever had published, "For my Soul Mate". When you click on the link, you'll then need to enter my name. Enjoy!
