Started my third career
As a poet in December 2009.
My first poem titled - Why?
Susan Cox Powell on my mind.
Tragic Tale -
Still missing to this day!
Writing poetry now, over nine years.
I like writing about current events
And memories past.
Haven't made a DIME,
But, writing poetry
Oh, so sublime.
Very good, considered thoughts on writing poetry. I haven't made a dime either, but that does not really bother me. I started writing in 2011, not that long ago in one way, but quite a while in another. A fine, subtle poem.
Michael, Thank you for your comments! ! Writing poetry has opened up a whole new world.
I have called you The Poet of Current Events before, because that is what you usually write about. You are also the one who got me started writing again, after a long hiatus. Thank you, Hank!
This was a great moment when you have started your career as a poet in 2009. Writing not only educates others but also gives us self satisfaction. You have lots of memories about the past. Writing poetry about current events is charming. This poem written beautifully is a motivational poem...10
Kumarmani, Thank you for your comments! For some unknown reason, at age 62, a whole new world opened up for me - The love of Poetry! !

I would like to translate this poem
Hasn't made a penny, hasn't made one dime, but OLD Hank Beuning had a...pretty good time writing for himself I'm sure. Writing is a boredom's cure. bri :)
Bri, Yes, being on Poemhunter is a great joy. Having made many friends! ! I wish I would have started writing poetry earlier in my life, then at age 62.
