This page is dedicated to John Wormsley.

He first inspired me to the love of reading I have, and thereby contributed  to my desire to be a writer,

albeit an inexperienced one.  This page will (hopefully) grow to contain more of my original compositions as I continue

to compose more works.

"Poets are those who say what others cannot or will not say."

                                            My first composition was a poem, written around 1996.  It is entitled I See.

                    While attending Truman State University, I took a Creative Writing course, for which I wrote 3 short stories and a plethora of  poems.

"On Writing"

Don't Fear the Rain

                                Sonnet de Jour

                walking

        Doggy

                    There has come soft Rain

                    The rest are not from the course, just spewing from the depths of my soul.

I'm tired

            Are you Afraid of the Dark?

    Eulogy

            Isa

                    A Question of Wil and John
