About Me

My photo
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.

Music


As the music fills my ears I can feel it lift up my soul,
When the melody abates I somehow don’t feel whole.
I love to mimic lyrics with a flawless harmonious verve,
When seen by other people I often slip and loose my nerve.
Meaningful sonnets penetrate the very depths of my core,
And when I’ve heard every chorus I find I still want more.

I am always and ever searching for an inspired spiritual hum,

Or at least an uplifting vibe to help me shut away the gloom.

When I find a soulful song that takes away my pain,
I know my life has meaning and my suffering is not in vain.
