Welcome to my poetry website.

I'm an amateur poet, but one who is fond of this form of artistic expression, especially poetry written in meter and rhyme. Though I have on occasion composed poetry in free verse form, I prefer to write using classical forms like the sonnet, quatrain, couplet, villanelle, and others.

I favor keeping phrases simple in my poems. However, I enjoy reading poetry that includes the skillful use of elegant words.

On the following pages, the poems are divided into three thematic parts and a fourth section comprised of miscellaneous topics.

My poems cover relatable subjects and issues we all experience in life. I hope many of them resonate with you, the reader.

Thank you for your visit.
