I have attempted to place a fair sampling of my prior poetry available for view to those that wish. I have had a few published in small quantities, but mainly my philosophy is to wait until I have passed on, then someone else can deal with all that. As for me, I will just continue to write, and occaisionally compile sets for several close friends.
Disclaimer:
Poems noted with an asterisk (*) are known NOT to have been restored yet from the prior site moves. They are a small minority, and the rest should work. A note on 4-9-09 - the prior ones that had not been restored have been commented out as of this date, and a slew of others added in, including the possible Era 10. A few newer ones have been linked in, some of which presently reside on the buried planet site. These are demarked by the (On BP) following the date designation.
Time availability is not as kind as it once was, which partially explains the dearth of new material.

Era Eight covers the time from just before I met Barb, until just after our engagement.
August 1996 - February 1998
Last Soliloquy in 9-96 to 12-96 notebook is 524; Last sonnet is #14
The timeframe covers my return to northern Virginia, our wedding, and life since that time. There has been some lean time,
with an undetermined number of written works from late 1998 until early 2002, with none from that time presently typed. It is possible
that Era 8/9 boundary is later than Summer 1998.
The Barb era is really two distinct poetic eras at this time, Eight and Nine. Era Ten, if it has begun, would also be part of it.

Era 9, presently untitled, can roughly be defined as Summer 1998 to some time during 2004.
An Instant -- 3.26.02-1
Staring Depression Down -- 8.9.03-1
When one recollects -- 8.10.03-2
The time is here -- 7.31.04-1 - on the occasion of Alicia and Adam Schmouder's wedding
Krog's Ode -- 12.13.04-1 (On the occasion of CJ Calo's birthday)
Era 10 is amorphous, and it cannot be determined if it has yet begun. As of now, there is a time gap with nothing in 2005, leading
to a conclusion that it is a natural era break.
Breath anew -- 7.30.06-1
- to Jeff & Dawn Schaefer on the occasion of their wedding - 10.7.06-1
At last it is here
To Lyndsay & Scot - on occasion of their wedding in Key West - 11.4.06-1
Shattered -- 6.8.07-1 (On BP)
Snowflakes from Heaven -- 12.5.07-1 (On BP)
Thirty Four -- 12.12.07-1 (On BP)
The Yellow Rose -- 4.29.08-1 (On BP)
If you should have any rhyme or reason to read any of the numerous soliloquys, you'll just have to read manuscript, if I can find them. Email me at the address below to arrange.
