From the Ground Up
Blades of grass
Stems on plants
Leaves on the
bushes and trees.
Green returns from
the ground up.

From the Ground Up
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.

On Common Ground
On Common Ground
We live in
the same place.
Respect each
other's space.
Greet one another
with a wave.
We will never
be identical, but
we can grow
on common ground.

Power Gardener
Power Gardener
I walk behind my
self-propelled lawnmower.
Neaten around the trees
with an electric weed trimmer.
Plug in the hedge trimmer
and shape all the bushes.
Whew, yard work takes
a lot of energy.
Are you settling back in to doing yard work?
