I was writing poetry long before I left high school. This is one of many volumes to follow. At my advanced age, I've traveled a lot and witnessed, first hand, many people who had stories to tell; hence, a lot of the poems are based on their stories of love lost and found and other issues ... including loved ones who had died. Just possibly, you can relate to one of the poems, in one fashion or the other. As I previously said above, the poems are basically about other people though, some are about my own experience with love and death, especially my own parents.And, where noted, I've directed the reader to my website, where I've included songs to go with the poetry. Future volumes will include other poems/songs, as well. Enjoy.
