About This Author
Writing poetry allows me to exercise my imagination and share it with others. I strive to write for the benefit of the reader using carnival fun mirror images of my life's experiences.

What Matters
My mother died of lung cancer
no one could answer her disease
it matters to me to pause
and back a cause to find a cure.

My friend's father had a stroke
no one could answer his disease
it matters to my friend to pause
and back a cause to find a cure.

Stroke matters to my friend
as lung cancer matters to me
together we live among the others
sisters brothers dads mothers.

If what matters to me is different
than the things that matter to you
you'd be wrong to think I don't care
because, believe me brother, I do.
