Hi All,
I am a middle-aged male who in the last year has discovered the wonderful world of poetry. Most of my inspiration comes from spiritual and nature themes. I have a love of long-distance running and have found that both I and my poetry suffer when I am "grounded" by injuries or maybe just worn joints. I reside in Lexington, KY, am a Kentucky Wildcat fan, hate liver,
listen to oldies, believe in God and generally try to do the "right" thing. I have a tendency toward depression, especially in the winter, and this was apparent in my poetry over the past several months. One of my favorite quotes is, "Life is the increasingly rarefied experience of the beautiful." I wish that I could remember where I read that!

My Poetry
-
Good...and kind.
Oh, that I could entwine these words -
To be loved by God
A lowering of walls -
A thief once stole my childlike view
That used to sit on polished pew -
arcing across the millennia
a beautiful rainbow of colors
