A POT POURRI OF POEMS

About the Book

When I try to put my thoughts on paper, it can be an emotional time. We all share many life experiences and memories. Our childhood and being an adult has its experiences and memories also. Many life experiences and memories are similar. We read in the newspapers and watched on television some of those memories and experiences as they developed. I have tried to put my thoughts and emotions down on paper. I write to the point of the subject and to the heart of the emotion. My poetry is crafted in a form easy to read and understand.
