My writing journey began in 1972 after being discharged from the US Navy, I returned to college and began writing poetry before class in the student union while drinking coffee...
In 2009, I created a blog for the sole purpose of publishing my poetry, below is the link:
Reflections: White Scorpion
Here are some examples of the kind of poems that I write... and, if you do visit my poetry blog please let me know what you think...
We are shielded
by the loose-fitting
clothes of our failures,
yet we continually
change our dress to
the seasons
of our dreams...
circa 1977
Figments
morning is a figment of my imagination
or, at least that is what it seems to be,
since my thoughts have been stolen by
the very aspect of old age, leaving me
with a presumption of innocence from
not being able to protect them so well.

Available
how silly i am to wonder
as i do these mornings
when alone with my cats
I ponder the universe
and my place within it,
hoping to case purpose
and meaning to my existence
that, in my case, appears
to be a little misplaced;
still, we all have works to perform
people to meet and things
to accomplish resemble a
an answer to our pondering,
but still i wonder in a debating
playful way what it is precisely
for which i am here and available.
