If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
I was born in a small town in Wisconsin but grew up mostly in the Chicago suburbs. Later in life I grew tired of the city rush and decided I wanted a more laid back atmosphere with friendly people. I found it in Tennessee. The country is beautiful and the people are wonderful and friendly; just what I was looking for. So here I am! I hope you enjoy my poems.
Background
Information
I love writing poetry and short stories in my spare time. My poems are influenced by happenings in the world around us; some good, some bad and some sad. I also hope to make a difference and shed light on things that we, as Americans, can and should change.
You will see that I write mostly about child abuse. This is my most hated subject. I've seen the face of abuse and it is hideous. I feel for the children and hope, that in some way, someone who cares will read my work and help to stop this terrible wrong.
Birth Place
