Book Description

In this book, I have covered a broad spectrum of topics in my poetry: faith, hope, charity, and love of God and neighbor, as Christ taught us to do. Subjects include church holy days, life and death, sickness, human relations, nature, humor, the changing seasons, the poor, the abused, the addicted, the homeless, pets, and wildlife. Being a WWII veteran, war and those who have served, been injured or died, the MIAs, and patriotism have always been important in my life. Each holiday or season inspires me to write about the current happenings. No two people see things the same, so I enjoy letting others see into my thoughts at the time a poem was written. Writing poetry is a shorthand to express my feelings and emotions on topics that are important to me. I hope you enjoy my poetry and ramblings through a variety of topics. With God’s help, I shall write as long as I can sit at a keyboard. Thank you for your interest in this endeavor. ***** My Finale I hear the Lord calling, He’s calling me home, that’s why I’m writing, this poet’s last poem. I love You, my dear Lord, when You call, I’ll be there, it is You I’ve adored, You have answered my prayer. When You do call me, I’ll write no more poems, I pray I’ll be taken, to my heavenly home.
