I have been writing since I was eight years born & raised in northern new jersey. After having two near-death experiences and losing my passion for writing poetry, my daughter, girlfriend, and my grade school teacher got me back into the art of words. I remember a conversation that I had with my teacher. He told me the jocks might get the girls now but keep writing poetry because the words will get the words the girls once the jocks are old and fat later. Now I have the love of my life due to the poem I left on her car windshield. P.S. The poem The PROPOSAL was a success. She said yes, so the teacher was right."I THINK MY WORDS KNOW YOU" Poetry.com.

MOUNTAINTOPHere, I sit alone on this mountaintop, listening to the sound of the pouring rain and looking at this painting that some may call a masterpiece. I get no rest. It seems like I am always awake. Who is it that is looking for my soul to take | 4 Views added 2 days ago | Rating |

SHOWERI can not sleep for the second night, so I pace back and forth. I drink warm milk and shower cold, but I still can not get this thought out of my head, which stands right before my mind. I want to holler and scream, but life is just a dream. | 1 View added 12 days ago | Rating |
