Poetry is something that speaks to our hearts, it reaches inside of us and sometimes it expresses for us that which we could not find words for ourselves. Writing poetry, in my experience, has never been a conscious effort. Rather, the poems sometimes express emotions I didn't even realize I felt, but once written, I feel better having expressed them. Sometimes, I find the poetry tells me the truth about something that I only see long after the words are written. I can only hope that in sharing my words, they will touch you in some way and, perhaps, make a difference in your life. Events and people in our lives have an impact which sometimes can only truly be felt by the words they inspire. To all those who have inspired me, thank you.

"When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations.  When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence.  When power corrupts, poetry cleanses, for art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstone of our judgement."
