Many of my poems rhyme but I have tried all forms of expressing a feeling or an idea. I strive to convey a happy inspiration to the reader.
The simplicity of my poems makes for easy reading and can appeal to most anyone.
Poets of yesterday,today and tomorrow should heed Longfellow's poem:


The Poets
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

O ye dead Poets, who are living still
Immortal in your verse, though life be fled,
And ye, O living Poets, who are dead
Though ye are living, if neglect can kill,
Tell me if in the darkest hours of ill,
With drops of anguish falling fast and red
From the sharp crown of thorns upon your head
Ye were not glad your errand to fulfill?
Yes; for the gift and ministry of Song
Have something in them so divinely sweet,
It can assuage the bitterness of wrong;
Not in the clamour of the crowded street,
Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng,
But in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.

Astronomer and author Jay Pasachoff shares ten stellar facts of interest to amateur astronomers and scientists alike. 1. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all have rings. 2. The Sun is middle-aged; it's halfway through its 10-billion-year lifetime. 3. Astronomers think that all of the normal matter in the universe makes up only about 5 percent of the contents of the universe. Dark matter is thought to make up about 25 percent, and a strange form of energy known as the cosmological constant is thought to make up the remaining 70 percent. 4. As a result of the greenhouse effect, Earth's average temperature is comfortable rather than freezing, and Venus is a horrid place, hot enough to melt lead. 5. Pulsars are dead stars that have collapsed. Some spin around in as little as 1/500 second, pretty fast for a body that contains as much mass as the Sun. 6. The Sun--as big as it seems to those of us on Earth--is actually on the small side for a star. It's a dwarf star; giants and supergiants are much larger, and neutron stars are even smaller. 7. Earth's galaxy, the Milky Way, contains about 400 billion stars. That's not all: There are hundreds of billions of other galaxies in the universe, some of which are much larger and contain many more stars than the Milky Way. 8. Wherever you are in the universe, distant clusters of galaxies seem to move away from you. The farther away they are, the faster they recede. This leads many astronomers to believe that the universe is expanding. 9. Astronomers have discovered dozens of planets orbiting stars other than the Sun. We know of many more planets outside our solar system than inside.
