Tales From The Disenchanted

My poems are ofttimes born from some great sadness. They usually speak of things that have been lost. They try to catch the soul and trap the memory— To tell the story...true...and—what—the cost. I rhyme because it helps me to remember. I rhyme so I must measure every word. I rhyme to help those lost things live forever, In rhyming, lilting, steeped-in-meaning verse. Words can prevail past fl esh or thoughts or empires, And words can make souls live beyond the grave. So Man will ever know the wonder of them— The courage that they showed...the joy they gave. Hopes And Dreams Hopes and dreams can inspire us, And give us reasons to go on. So even if they never do come true, They serve a purpose....
