Attorney, widower, three grown children, four granddaughters (who still think I'm perfect) . My wife, Nancy, passed away 5 years ago. I started writing poetry three years ago. Recently published my first book of poetry entitled 'Dance on Your Dreams'.
Before law school, Occidental College and UCLA, two years of college football. Aside from family, my passion is poetry. Born and raised in Los Angeles... My dear mother passed away last year at 97, a brilliant, published poet ('The Poetry of Blanche Buckholtz') , a songwriter, classical pianist, coloratura soprano and award-winning artist and mosaicist and great athlete (once got a whole-in-one) .
Each moment of hope
a lifetime of despair
I starved on the empty plate
of my heart in disrepair
...
How should I act
you’re watching
do I need to care
you’re listening
...
Stumbling My Way
I feel a silent turbulence in a troubled head
of misting memories shedding darker mornings
...
My history a blur
an ordinary journey
on embattled terrain
my feeble heart
...
