When I was a child,
a boy walking outdoors,
the meanings were faint,
but my eyes were large.
Then, as a young adult,
a man walking outdoors,
with focused awareness
and explicit intentions.
Now, an older man with a gentle spirit,
collecting images, gathering words,
sorting meaning into lines,
pursuing truth and beauty.

Working to fill the page.
Seeking fulfillment.
Giving gratitude. Sharing.
Revealing the heart of a quiet poet.
