Description

This podcast celebrates my love of poetry. I’ve been writing poetry for about 4 1/2 decades and after years of hauling around boxes of poetry books and scatters of paper with poetry scribbled in both sides I decided to unload the boxes and share with you my poetic creations.

One poem entitled, ‘Being Alone Back on Earth’This is a randomly selected poem … a short one as I’m so very tired. My apologies for yawning a few times while trying to record this episode, but I could barely keep my eyes open… I did take a ‘zop’ to help me sleep but it seemed to take effect faster than I anticipated. Hope you enjoyed that poem. See you next time and hope you get a good sleep when, and if, you get there.

Dive into the abyss with me … in “From Within the Marble Madhouse”, a poem that peels back the curtain on a world gone haywire. Where those in power are lost in a labyrinth of their own making, oblivious to the chaos outside their guilded bubble. A haunting reflection on the dissonance between the haves and the have-nots, and the madness that ensues when reality is lost in translation.
Two poems chosen randomly from my first two books Hope you enjoy these .

Sometimes magical things can happen when beautiful photographs are shared between two souls.
Patty Hearst, granddaughter of the publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, was kidnapped in 1974 and after being found alive, a year and a half later, ended up being sentenced to thirty-five years in prison for bank robbery. Her suitcase found in an old Greyhound bus station fifty years later unearthed this poem.
Death will come and visit all of us at some point in our lives. He will come and take us from the land of the living … it’s what he does. But don’t fear him, for he comes as a friend and he will take some time getting to know you and making you comfortable before he tucks you in for your eternal sleep.
Sometimes you need to escape from the world and all it’s craziness and head into the kitchen and make some banana bread to soothe your soul.
Two poems in tonight’s episode. “The Nun” & “The Nun (Part2)”. The Nun in silent reverence stands apart from the earth bound beings around her. With a whispered prayer and a beating heart she trades earthly ties for skies above. A life of devotion and a testament to boundless love.
For my sister Catherine, a kindred spirit and guiding light. Together we weathered life’s storms, and in each other, found solace. Your unwavering faith in me, your love for my art and words, will forever be your legacy in my heart. Your courage, my solace, your laughter, my joy. Your memory, my bittersweet solace. Forever missed, forever cherished.
A beautiful kiss of eternity has brought joy to the vampire who fulfills the eternal dream of the undreamed.
