I was once a young man; I’m an older one now. I’m a son, father, grandfather and husband. I am many things both to me, and to the people I know. I make my way through life with as much grace, kindness and compassion that I’m able to bring forth. Poetry, at least the co-creation of it, with whatever source from which it springs, has come to me late in life. The simple fact that it has come at all, from time to time, is a blessing from which I’m truly grateful.
