Welcome

Hello and welcome to my poetry blog! The site is evolving gradually but I encourage you to check back, as there will be new posts weekly.

My poetic style is also evolving gradually and I thank you for joining me on this journey of learning and discovery. My hope is that my poems will be of some benefit, however small, to my readers. This poem encapsulates many of my works:

An Introduction to Poetry

Hey, it’s just a poem.
But don’t ever say it’s just a poem.

Hey, poetry exaggerates sometimes.
But don’t ever think it’s lying.

Hey, a poem’s not definite.
But don’t ever miss its meaning.

Hey, I wrote a poem.
Will you listen to what it says?
