I think of my writings as poetic observation, of my life, the world, nature. Written in a stream-of-consciousness technique, edited as I write, Spiritual, organic, feeling, empathetic to the human condition, evocative of the natural world. Some are songs or became songs. Music and art are always involved. Personal relationships, too.
