I'm a former special education teacher/administrator. I'm a father of two daughters and a son the grandfather of five grandsons and the great grandfather of three great granddaughters. I'm an American Legion Chaplain and I have been writing poetry since I was in the second grade (1941). Though I minored in English, I've had no formal training in the art, but enjoy haikus, rhyming and free flow poetry.
