A few of my poems were inspired by watching by children swing. This is one of them. It’s about letting them go.

A poem about dreams and children.

A poem about finding yourself.

One of my favorite pictures, and a poem that I wrote to go with it.

A simple poem about what a father wishes for his children.

And for himself.

A poem about rediscovering joy.

On the passing of childhood, and having a child small enough to fall asleep in my embrace.

A wish that my children will realize the special bond they share.

A poem inspired by watching my son race to the swings in the final days of summer vacation.

I think about my father a lot, and there’s so much I wish I could have asked him.

This poem tries to capture some of that feeling.
