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!

Sam had a monster

Sam had a monster
A monster in his pocket
He fed it everyday
His monster got really big
His monster in his pocket
Sam tried to hide the monster
The monster in his pocket
Everyone could see this monster
This monster in Sam’s pocket
The monster got bigger everyday
Sam fed his monster all the time
He fed that monster
That monster in his pocket
The monster got so big
Sam couldn’t hide his monster
His monster in his pocket
Now a monster had Sam
It had Sam in its pocket
And it fed Sam everyday
This monster that had Sam
Sam in its pocket.
