From the Poet's Workshop

This work takes you behind the scenes. It begins with tips on writing rhymed poetry. The next article presents and explains a haiku that served as my personal motto for many years. This is followed by an article entitled “Confessions of an Author.” The bulk of the work presents several poems, and offers a captivating analysis of their contents. It also offers personal information on the circumstances under which the poems were written, explaining such factors as what prompted me to write the poem, where I was at the time, how long it took me to write it, my state of mind at the time, etc.
