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 clamor of the crowded street,
Not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng,
But in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.
Birth Place: Bronx, NY USA
Accomplishments: Two years of college in Business Administration/Accounting.
