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!

Samuel had a thing in his pocket...

Samuel had a thing in his pocket,
He fed it every day,
His thing got really big,
His thing in his pocket.
Samuel tried to hide the thing in his pocket,
But everyone could see this thing,
This thing in Samuel's pocket.
The thing got bigger every day,
Samuel fed his thing all the time,
This thing, that thing in his pocket
The thing got so big,
Samuel couldn't hide this thing anymore,
Samuel had a thing,
A thing in his pocket,
Now a thing has Samuel in its pocket,
And it fed Samuel every day,
This thing that had Samuel in its pocket.
