Book Excerpt

I didn't write Garden Of Poetry all at once. It took years of changing important moments into easy to understand poems. The book is 9 " X 11" and easy to read. Each poem is a meditation on LIFE and you just may stop for many minutes to ponder on a simple line... NEVER did I write for FAME. That would be scary. I write ONLY to make a DIFFERENCE in the world, and hopefully in someone's LIFE.
