Well, I'm not very good talking or promoting myself in an About Me Page.  It's easier to show myself in poetry. As far as this goes, just read my poems and you'll get to know the real me..

I write in a variety of formats, from free verse to old fashioned rhyme and everything in between. I can hear a word, or see something and it brings on the words. I've had to get a microphone/headset for my laptop because I talk faster than I can type, so I can get my words, thought down faster that way.

Just enjoy my poetry, and give me honest comments/critiques. Thanks and I hope these are enjoyed.
