A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
I love writing poetry. Painting pictures with words that tickle the imagination. I want the reader to laugh and cry; to reach out and touch with words that soothe or startle.
Lyrical expressions, vivid phrases and puzzles to boggle the mind, all are enough to inspire me to write.
It's an indulgence that gives me great satisfaction.
