A poem expressing the fleeting nature of life.

This is a limerick in reply to "the singing cricket" by Martin Kloess and which I liked so much that I almost passed out laughing,…

Haiku.

Was thinking of animals when I wrote this.

What went through the mind of the Celebrities on a night where the world was watching them?

Some people say that a poem should be self- explanatory and there is no need for analysis. For those readers there is no obligation to participate in this section of the book. However, others may like to explore the thoughts and themes behind the work.

This is a poem I wrote a few years ago, about an actor who experiences fame and fortune, yet never achieves his greatest desires, and suffers because of it. It’s not one of my happier poems, but I thought I might put it out anyway, as an example of my writing. I’ve never shown it to anyone until now. The poem reflects on how people can have so much success, and never be truly happy in their lives. Again, my apologies for it being so depressing.

This poem describes how "fame" can change a person and how a person can become miserable because of it and regret it as time goes on…and how it will always be a kind of bittersweet feeling we can’t seem to get rid of.

And yet another poem about the infamous William BloodDagger.

Envy can lead to many problems if we have this emotion! The Foureyed Poet.
