there is somuch to tell since i was a kid and a teenager not much has happened to me. i grew up in the 1950's which was a great time to grow up. in 1950 we got our first tv set. we were the only ones in 6 blocks that had a tv set. everyone came over to our house to watch our tv. in those days tv was not on 24 hours a day like it is now, so when you first turned the set on, all you got was a test ... more »

Lonely Am I
Lonely are the nights
Lonely are the days
Lonely am I, in so many ways
Lonely are the seasons
Lonely are the years
So lonely am I, that it brings tears.
Lonely is this place
Lonely is my life
Lonely am I, that I reach for a knife
Lonely is this court room
Lonely is my sentence
So lonely am I that I ask for repentance.

Hi Jim:
I am a grade 8 teacher, and we are starting a poetry unit. One task I have students do is analyze a poem, identify symbols, devices and themes. Finally, they are to include a biography of a poet. My student chose Lonely, am I. However, we are having difficult finding information about you. Could she contact you with a few questions? It would be greatly appreciated. I found and offer up some of your poems to choose from. I found them here on poemhunter. I found this that you wrote about yourself at the start- http: //www.poemhunter.com/i/ebooks/pdf/jim_foulk_2007_4.pdf - that's it - any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks... Stewart
