I have been expressing my feelings and thoughts through words all my life. Though these are very personal thoughts, experiences and feelings, being a counselor my various patients have read some poems. They find it comforting to see some of their very thoughts, feelings and actions expressed and that they made a connection through the written word. I hope that you find some to be thought provoking, others to be sentimental while some may be hard or intense to read. They are all a part of my life...on these little scraps of paper.
