My Poetry

I've been writing since I was 6 years old or so and have three books full of poetry, amounting to over 300 poems. Not all of them all worthy of being shown off, but I have my fair share of special gems. The newer stuff is at the bottom. Check the updates page to see what was added when. Hope you enjoy them.

Probably my favorite poem of my early years, this one is short, but sweet.
