Your Inside Grace
I look at you,
and what I see,
is not all that
I love
Your outside frame
has gorgeous features,
filled with beauty’s
touch
But what I see,
is what’s inside,
your heart I’m
speaking of
Your caring
kindness and tender
ways, are what I love
so much
Written in Queens, New York -Circa 1995

I'm a Soldier (Warrant Officer) in the Army stationed in Texas. I'm 36 years old. I started writing poetry in high school so it's been over 20 years now. I've written about numerous things, but I seem to focus on "Love" -hopeless romantic I guess LOL! One of my persoanl goals is to be published before turning 40. I'm currently nearly finished with my 5th collection of poems (three are listed here, maybe more to come). Each of my collections contain 50 poems. Very open to comments/critiques, trying to become better in my craft...that's ultimately what led me here. I enjoy meeting people. Any questions about my work or myself, please just ask.
