My Poetry
Well, I had to have some reason to have these pages up...and this seemed as good as any... Note: Sorry, I haven't got the hang of happy poetry yet - it happens to me less often. No, just kidding, I'm not actually an all that depressing person - a lot of my poetry simply is.
NB: Please don't get discouraged if you dislike the first few poems - the later ones are quite different and probably better.
Please also visit my Relationship Related Poems Page.
Poems from about mid-October 2000 onwards (from "Restless spirit, find thy niche) are more biblically sound than those of before.
Please note: "Never assume that the poet is the ..." it is so annoying when you forget a decent quote or word...geez, well, all I was trying to say here was that even though I nearly always use 'I' in my relationship poetry (and most of my non as well) it is occasionally not actually me that I'm talking about...
The key is found at the bottom of the page.
