About Me

Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia, Canada
I work full time as an advanced care paramedic in Nova Scotia. I am married with three daughters. I have been married to the same beautiful woman for over 21 years and I still live in my hometown, (I haven't found a way out yet! lol!) I am the middle child from a family of eight. I have just recently put my poetry into book format. I first began writing my poetry as a way of self-expression but I have also written it with the intentions of having others read it and hopefully gain understanding through my words. I have always felt out of place, emotionally, spiritually and socially, like I never truly fit in but I am working through this and although at times it is a heavy burden, I don't regret being this way because it has led me to good things and also, it has allowed me to express my self through poetry. I hope that my writing will continue to improve and inspire others to do the same. I am currently working on my second poetry book and I would truly appreciate your support but more importantly I would like to hear any comments from those of you that have read my poems.

Our Quest


Oft’ I feel indifferent as this life passes by,
Oft’ I search within myself to find the reasons why.
There is no secret potion or short cut to the truth,
We have to look to one another to carry on the sleuth.
Unwavering is the journey and worthy is the quest,
As time reveals the answers,
We must share them with the rest.
