(Lori’s dedication and poem about Bruce’s poetry inspired this write.) my poetry is all about me for the most part I wonder why I never write about nature which comes so naturally from other writers I could write about a fresh morning breeze giving me a unsullied outlook on life as songbirds tweeted a good morning tune instead I basically write about me I guess most poets do it isn’t that I don’t appreciate the fluffy white clouds on a crisp spring day and the magical sunsets that will cause you to gasp aloud if I seem ego-driven to write about me, and me alone I guess it is because a large portion of my life was spent trying to survive dark and dangerous surroundings it clouded my mind not all of my poetry is dark and dismal still, I must admit I've failed to grasp nature in my world that’s a shame I've missed out on the awareness of what nature has bequeathed to us ©March 29, 2014 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ In America, anyone can become president.

Thank you, Lori. I might have been too hard on myself, because for the most part every poet writes about themselves in their own way. ~*~ In America, anyone can become president. That's the problem. ~*~ |

EACH of us contributes their own unique and important writing 'style' to this sad 'ol world etched in these fine blue sands of 'P.I.P.-land' by the cyber-sea ... I am not capable of the fine, powerful, and important 'slice-of-life'/'reality' writes (autobiographical or not) that others do! |

Don[t underestimate your powers O yes, Bruce is the consummate nature poet, a fine one indeed And you are real and raw, not one to pull a punch and that is a blessing So write on |
