Read Entertaining Poetry
Writing Poetry Is Creative Freedom at Its Best
This is odd. I'm a poet with a Ph.D. in chemical engineering. So, you may wonder how did I happen to write poetry? The answer is: I began writing in a journal on January 4, 1999. Since then I have filled 59 journals. And in the course of that writing, I've written over 1,800 poems. Here are some favorites. Enjoy. By the way, that's Olivia Felini helping support my creative writing. The photo was taken by my wife.

I am challenging myself to write a poem every day for a year.

I love poetry and love writing it. Sometimes it goes well and sometimes it does not. Come with me on my journey to make 365 poems by April 2011.
