I have been writing for sometime, but until now I did a lot of it in seclusion. Glad for the information that led me here. I love this literary outlet to express the deep things of the heart....and the not so deep! |

royowen:
I am 71years old. My main interest is my faith in God, my second is my love for my wife, daughters, my 4 grandchildren ( 1daughter and 3 grandsons currently live in New York, U.S.) I like to write poetic tributes for birthdays, Mother's Day etc. I sometimes write tributes for friends. I am an avid songwriter/musician and have recorded 2 albums and sometimes write personal songs and record them for family or friends. I love to pray & contemplate/ponder the wonderful depths/height/width of my God and share them with others of the same inclination as myself. I draw inspiration from people I both love, or, I feel a deep compassion for. Those who overcome tremendous personal problems. I am also deeply moved by the wonders of creation.

lenjomc: I am impressed by your work, sir. I have also written in seclusion over the past 20 odd years.
What brought me here was to meet poets I can learn from. I only have one posting, and you are my second review. Those reviews were pay-dirt for me, as I have without doubt
found two poets I can learn from. Your expressions of sharing and compassion have touched my heart. But then, I guess that's why we write, isn't it? Congratulations and kudos to you. lenjomc Dec 23/15
