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!

Old King Caddle

Old king Caddle, vain Overseer,
He looked in the mirror
And looked to the rear,
He looked to the front
And looked really near,
He looked at his court
And looked at their fear,
He looked and looked
And let out a sneer,
“By all that is Caddle
In my mustache, what is this SMEAR!

Caddle:
To fuss.
To coax; spoil.
To attend officiously.
To tease; scold; annoy.
