A Note from the Poet
​There is a sense of peace in my poetry.  The poems appeal to compassion and sensitivity, as well as to sensibility.  The verse is brief and language simple and the books are perfect for leaving on your coffee or bedside table for those quiet moments of reflection.  You can find me on social media @lakeheadpoet, but I hope you join me on the journey by reading my collections from cover to cover. 
May peace be with you,
