Dear Readers,

​

Thank you for your interest and attention to my writing. 
It is all inspired by the great poets before me, including Percy Bysshe Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe, Edna St. Vincent

Millay, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickenson, and many others.
However, I never attempt to copy or imitate a writer.
Rather I let the words flow out from my heart, mind, and

soul as the whim passes me.

​

My writing reflects both the travels and travails of my life

journey along with my inner life living with mental health struggles and the pains of humankind.  I hope that even 

my darkest ponderings serve to soothe or inspire.
