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. I remember a conversation that I had with my teacher. 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.
