Like all poets, I write to discover my soul and reach emotional
truths. I love the
puzzle of words. Arranging them, rearranging them, until the words make the
picture I want. Poetry helps me visualize my emotions with concrete imagery.
For example my poem, “"Missing Tokens” comments on the discontinuation of traditional Monopoly pieces. I complain that I didn’t vote “to blackball beloved tokens.” Yet I continue to roll the dice and keep playing “till I’m all out of paper money.”

In recalling a trip to Bermuda and the way houses are
constructed to withstand hurricanes, I am reminded “how even in paradise one
must be prepared to weather storms.”
