The poems in Bare Witness were written with open eyes and an open heart. They explore the human journey in all its power and fragility. I invite you to travel with me. Please share your response by going to the Contact Page, I would love to hear from you.

Bare Witness
“Poetry is the journal of the sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air.” Carl Sandburg’s quote captures the transcendence one feels when expressing a poem. Each of these poems was lovingly selected from a lifetime of attempts at flight. The observations and reflections are imaginative expressions of the myriad experiences encountered on life’s journey.
