The Unknown Love

There are  so many times that I use poetry to weave my way beyond certain events or cross roads in my walk in life.    I also like to create situations, or use imagination to create circumstances from which I could write of.  So many of such writings have never seen the light of day nor … Continue reading The Unknown Love

All Lives Matter

Rather than post a poem or a couple of photographs as I would normally do, I wanted to address a topic that The Media appears to put as number one focus.

Such a small milestone and Such a Large Encouragement

Hi I hope this little post finds you well.. I first started experimenting with this Blog a number of years ago, but without any drive to make it work.
