The Versatile Blogger Award
I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.

DeleteHi Michelle! I've been off the radar this week. Techical difficulties...What a nice surprise to greet me when I logged into email and my blog. Thank you very much, I appreciate your support. Also enjoyed your postcard poem--I loved to get and send them.:-) Hadn't thought about how the messages have changed...
