Stories

A poem about a drive home from work that leads to revelations and a leap of faith.

What you'll find here are words of warmth, memories that make me smile, and observations worthy of noting. May they amuse, touch, or inspire you.

Inspired by Jan Hutchinson’s prompts for National Poetry Writing Month 2023.

As I said somewhere else, I won’t manage to write a poem a day this April. The start was delayed, as I didn’t want to bore you with unimaginative rants giving righteous indignation and certain occurrences too many words and importance.

Poems for National Poetry Writing Month - April 2023

This is a collection of poems I have and will be writing to celebrate life. I want to emphasize the beauty in our lives, humor and changes we make.

Life is fascinating. It is both joyful and painful and everything in between, but there are lessons to be learned, and yes, treasures to be found. If we ever think we are in control, we are mistaken, but that is the beauty of our journeys. I hope you find something in these poems to give you pause, to make you think, or to make you feel.

I was exploring a strange mood, this is the result.

An Exploration In Limericks of Those Tricky Tabernacle Taboos

For the 2023 Poetry Anthology: Exploration

A poem about a fictional boy's journey.

Three poems I wrote as an exploration in writing. Content and form of each is different, but there is a tenuous connection to the anthology theme.
