I appreciate so many of you sharing your thoughts with me. The possibilities are limitless. I thank God for my lovely wife, companion, and best friend, Karen. Many of the poems are about her. Beware, some of the poems may contain adult language, but not like TV or the movies.

All the poems were written before and after our marriage. For several years, I have wanted to write a book of poetry. I think you will be intrigued by the simplicity of these poems. Part 1 deals with poems that I have written to Karen over the past seventeen years and some other inspirational poems as well. Part 2 deals with motivational poems and passionate writings that I think you will enjoy. Having written fictional books, inspirational books, religious books, motivational books, this was a real challenge.

But I love poetry and classical prose. Hopefully, you will find a favorite poem that you like. This book is filled with passion, energy, and vitality.
