About the Author
"Diverse" is one word that might be used in describing the authors frequenting the Poetry Pages on-line community. Our poets come from nearly every background and walk of life, belief system and culture. They hail from all around the world: the United States, Canada, Africa and the United Kingdom, including natives of Scotland and Bavaria. Writing styles range from haiku to free verse and virtually everything in between.
Though situation, style and perspective differ individually, they have been drawn together by common love of the written word. In sharing, they have not only grown in their craft, but have come to appreciate the beauty and worth of seeing life through the eyes of another. It is in that spirit they have endeavored into this unique project; to share that which has become so dear.
