These are poems I’ve written as a youth or as a young adult. From time to time I find inspiration, humor, and good memories when I recall and reread these writings.

(The names of who these were about are obviously not mentioned. Just like some songs are written about a particular person and that information is not disclosed. Please don’t share if one of these poems is about you, as I want to respect both of our privacy. If you read one of these and find it uncomfortable that it was shared, please contact me privately so that I can remove it.)
