My Poetry

I started this blog so I could neatly archive my work. You should find my poetry very diverse. I would like to believe there is something here for almost everyone.

It was only recently that I became interested in poetry. I started taking care of my mother after she suffered a stroke and we began writing stories and poems together. It has been very therapeutic for us both.

This isn't a complete collection of my poetry, my first poems I self published under the moniker, A Pet Banana Production. The first self published book, "A Pet Banana" is a rhyme/story about colors and the second is a collection of poetry I created with my mother titled, "An Elephant is On My House." I hope you enjoy my writing and I would love a visit to my author page!
Thanks!

A Poem Today.

I want to write a poem today
Really hard I will think,
So all of my rhymes do link

Pen to paper now I start;
The bird is blue,
And off he flew.


Oh Boy, I’m so proud
It’s coming along fine,
And all the words are mine!

I’ll jot down another;
The dog is tan,
Outside he ran.

Wow, that is really great!
Now I’m letting loose,
Just like the great Seuss!

One more stanza is all I need;
The apple is green,
Just like a lime
Just like a LIME?
Oh, crud
That doesn’t rhyme!
