Keeper of the Dead: Haunting Ballads & Poems

Hello there, my new friend,
Come on in, take a look,
Get lost in the pages,
Of this haunting book.

Well, most everyone, at least,
If you like spirit-filled pages,
That won’t let you Rest In Peace.
The spirits inside are lonely,
They’d love to haunt your head,
But that can only happen,
If you read Keeper of the Dead.

You just might get it.

In the Shadow of Death: Ballads and Poems on Living and Dying

We’re all standing in the shadow …

If you’ve ever wondered,
about the other side,
Or felt the grief of losing,
someone who has died,
If you’ve ever struggled
with life’s day to day,
Or questioned when or if,
things would be okay,
If you’ve ever given thought
to your own eulogy,
Or contemplated what,
through the veil you’d see,
If a moonlit night has
ever caught your breath,
You may be just the person
to read In the Shadow of Death.

Thoughts on Exhibit: The Still-Standing Adventures of Hercules and Hollow Man

Thoughts are powerful things.

What if an artifact’s thoughts were on exhibit at a museum, instead of just the artifact? Such as a bronze statue and a suit of armor just hanging out in the halls of the local museum? Getting into some serious and not so serious discussions involving their past, present, and future … along with a few side tangents in between.

Thoughts on Exhibit is a series of poems containing dialog between Hercules and Hollow Man, two unlikely friends with lots of thoughts about random things no one really cares about. Other than themselves, and maybe, you? Go ahead, hang out in the metaphorical halls awhile and see what you think. Take your time, they’re not going anywhere.

Something to think about while you’re there: You could learn a lot about someone if you knew their thoughts. What would others learn about you, if your thoughts were the ones on exhibit?

Take the Leap! Ballads and Poems on Breaking Free

Dare to Dream. Take a Chance. Break the Mold.

Opportunity waits not,
for those who stand idle,
Life is meant to be lived,
without a bit and bridle.
Failure is ever present,
so take chances often,
Don’t leave behind regrets,
when put in a coffin.
No one has it easy,
excuses are not rare,
Set aside the blame,
accept that life’s not fair.
If you find this notion,
to be mostly true,
Then go, Take a Leap!
This book may be for you.
