I Saddled Up a Seahorse - New children's poetry book release
I had so much fun writing I Saddled Up a Seahorse - the third book in my Poetry for Kids series!
Filled with quirky characters and amusing animals, it's a fun ride of the imagination - a word romp through a world where the wackiest things can happen - from runaway donuts to picnics on the moon. For maximum enjoyment, read the poems out loud.Happily, I was able to work with the same artist as the first two books in the series, and he created some highly entertaining cartoon artwork for the book.
If you have a child or grandchild in your life (ages 5-9) who likes to laugh, have a look at my new book. You can check out some of the poems on the book's Amazon page, using "Read Sample."
If you pick up a copy, please let me know what you think. Reviews are very much appreciated.

Retrocausality & the Writer - poem
This new poem is a playful look at creative writing.
Sometimes ideas seem to arrive from somewhere else...
Perhaps the future?

What you went through does not define you. The light inside of you is stronger than the darkness you endured. You are a victor, not a victim...

With grief, there are no right words. Only the quiet presence of those who care. 💙
