Whoa! 

After a very long absence I'm here to announce a new publication of my poetry, 36 poems aboutwork and love and everything in between. Expecting book availability through Amazon by mid July. 

I'm happy to show a snippet: 

Work 

Too many people hate or endure their jobs. Since habit and fear are tough taskmasters, here's my two cents on the matter:

Work for pay

is not the way

to need

or lead

or heed

or plead.

Work for pay

can be ok

when you accept,

inspect,

reject and

trek.

Work for pay

you might attest

is not the best

without the zest,

even with the smallest

crest.

But since you still

must pay the bills,

plan refills,

fuel the tills, 

and climb the hills

And work you must,

avoid the rust,

and dust,

mistrust and

crust.

Try instead

to work for joy

Use your head

and make your bed.

Don't stay wed

when all is said.

Work and feel

keep it real,

Maybe heal

Sometimes squeal,

and now and then

accept the deal.

When work and joy

combine—oh boy!

Time put in

where there’s a grin,

beats the sin

of an easy win.

So find the path

Let it last

Have a blast

Make it fast

And in the doing:

The joy is cast.
