A Lifetime of Poetry

My book of poetry includes every poem I have ever written - good or bad - that I could locate. A few have been misplaced over these forty-four years. The poems are arranged in the order in which they were written; therefore, they should hopefully seem progressively better throughout the book. I began writing around age ten. Some poems were written along with my children because of school assignments or special occasions. I hope to print a second book at around age eighty to include the poems I write in the future, along with any past lost ones I find. I hope you enjoy reading these poems as much as I enjoyed writing them. Moreover, I thank God for this gift.
