Hey, I’m glad you’re here

About the Poet
I resist the idea that I write poems. The words seem to have a mind of their own and generally appear at a time and place of their choosing.
They began one day without warning and trickled into my life over the years with increasing frequency. They have become a way of expressing and, in a way, experiencing my spiritual evolution. They have nudged me along the path, offering insights along the way.
No one heard them or even knew about them for the first ten years. Then I began to share them with the occasional muse who inspired one or two.
I never expected to share them publicly. But somehow, they have pushed their way onto this website. So, now that they’re here — I offer them to you -- gently, unvarnished, with the love from which they were born.
