I've been writing since I was a child...a long time.
I write to express my feelings
and put onto paper that which I seem unable to speak.

I have never studied poetry,
so please bear with me and be kind.
My personal thought about poetry is
that it should evoke some feeling in the reader:

laughter,anger, tears or whatever.
If it does not make the reader feel,
it is just ramblings and not poetry.
I hope you find something here that makes you feel.

A few of my favorite quotes.
"Where there is great love, there are always wishes."
Willa Cather

"Wishing to be friends is quick work,
but friendship is a slow ripening fruit".
Aristotle
Aristotle
The poet doesn't invent. He listens.
Jean Cocteau
Jean Cocteau
To imagine is everything,
to know is nothing at all.
Existence would be intolerable
if we were never to dream.
Anatole France
Anatole France
The weak can never forgive.
Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Mohandas Gandhi
Mohandas Gandhi
Love never dies a natural death.
It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source.
It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals.
It dies of illness and wounds;
it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.

severedties : thank you on April 13, 2007Thank you for commenting on my poem "Stone Sober"... I have yet to finish it, I cannot bring myself to do so, for I fear the outcome of the entire situation. Alas inspiration must come from somewhere... otherwise how would we be able to understand and express our creativity... the best forms of art are built based on tragedy... once again, thank you. I will return the favor the very second I have a moment to myself...right now I'm in a bit of a rush. Take care.

Shorty Ray on April 10, 2007Thank you for your feedback. It is appreciated! I did struggle with that line. May I consult you if I'm stuck like that again. I'll definitely include in you in my writing, if you wouldn't mind.
Thanks again -
catz on April 10, 2007Hi, I just wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying your poetry
And your author page is so pretty. I got frustrated with mine awhile back and deleted everything so I need to get busy with it, get it put back together.
I'll be back to read more of your poems
