Poems

The Natural World (Alternate Cover): A Book of Poetry.
Cover design by David Murphy

The poems published on this site have been written over the course of many years, and they are a fraction of the poems that I’ve written.

The poems are a diverse group. They are rondeaus, sestinas, sonnets, and villanelles. They are blank verse, free verse, and rhyming. The poems are narrative, abstract, and realistic. Their topics cover relationships, life, and death. And the poems’ audiences are children, young adults, and adults.

What ties these poems together is their common belief in the underlying, powerful good of the majority of humankind.
