Welcome

You have chosen a nice day.
` Flowers are blooming.
Birds are flying.
You may see a fish jump
or a frog dive.
Enjoy your stay!
Expect some surprises.

Welcome
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.

Mourning Dove

Mourning Dove
Are you watching over me?
Do you have a message
from someone I can't see?
When I wish for comfort,
I know you'll bring it along.
It begins as soon as
I hear your song.

Signs of Fall

Signs of Fall
In the heat of summer,
signs of fall appear.
Yellow buses take
to the streets on
a regular schedule.
Talk of football,
from youth to pro,
fills the air.
Everybody
wants to be
in the know
about their teams.
Cicadas team their
screams and create
an accompaniment
for morning walkers.
A sampling of leaves
change color
then fall.
Thanks to Dana Dampier for this week's Wordsmith Studio Creative Prompt-Here's Your Sign.
