Poetry for the Adventuresome

This is a collection of my first 340 Poems. Each group of about twenty six to forty poems with pictures were originally published in Chapbooks, small books of up to about forty pages and sold by chapmen who carried them around the country, selling from door to door. I first started playing around with poems in March of 2010, while sitting on the porch overlooking the Coosawattee River in north Georgia. In fact my first poem was titled Coosawattee. It became a kind of challenge to write about things in poems, like caving, vacations and other things around Georgia and the Gulf coast. My wife Kathy gave me a birthday gift of a poetry course in August, 2010 and I have been writing ever since.
