excellent poems. you are great in explaining your feels. i invite you to read my poem
Congratulations on the Outstanding Achievement Award and here's hoping the latest novel gets in print. What an honour for a writer!
I read one of your poems and I wrote a comment saying that if you became a poet once I would buy your works. I did not know you actually were one already. I just became a member of this website, though I love poetry. I also love music and reading all types of books, so I'm going to read your novels too. One thing I loved about your poems is that I felt a really nice connection to it. Keep writing, though you just gained a fan!
