The first poem that I wrote was at the start of my pioneering life in 1962, but I did not keep any of my poems until 1980. I now have 27 years of poetry in my collection. The poetry here is from the 25th year of this collection of poetry--2005.
Notes
With this most recent year of writing poetry, it takes to over 6000 the number of poems and two million words(circa). I began to write poetry with more regularity in 1989 and have been writing poetry at a rate of slightly more than one poem per day for some 17 years. My main style is what I call prose-poetry. I have little published poetic work except on internet sites like this one.
