Letter to My Children
My challenge is for you to write your own letter to your children or future child.
Dear Child, feel the warmth of my hand this world is too cold
Dear child I am here to be your mountain when the stones crumble
Dear Child, Wherever you go take me in your heart
To remind you that love is real
To remind you hugs are medicine
To remind you, that you, are special and I don't just say this because your my child
I say this because you show me how to love, when I can't love myself
You demonstrate that love is tangible rather than a feeling
And every day you smile and call me dad
You give me another reason to live.

I don't categorize myself as just a poet I'm a storyteller, using my passions, and past experiences as a foundation for every story. I don't write for the money I write for looks of reader's faces.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
