I have been writing since I was eight years old, born & raised in northern New Jersey. After having two near-death experiences and losing my passion for writing poetry, my daughter, girlfriend, and grade school teacher got me back into the art of words.

He told me the jocks might get the girls now but keep writing poetry because the words will get the words the girls once the jocks are old and fat later. Now I have the love of my life due to the poem I left on her car windshield. P.S. The poem The PROPOSAL was a success. She said yes, so the teacher was right."I THINK MY WORDS KNOW YOU" Poetry.com.

I NEEDI want to see those things that can not be explained as I watch the sand of time run through my hands. I want to feel something under my feet, and I need to close my eyes to rest where I stand, but my body wants to continue with this test. | 194 Views added 29 days ago | Rating |
GOWhere does this all lead to this road paved in gold that leads to nowhere? Who is doing the writing on the wall? Are we the ones meant to listen, and some of us will be good boys and girls and obey | 8 Views added 1 month ago | Rating |
