Sempiternity

Book Cover & Preview Text
Sounds Loneliness has no sound Let, it echoes loudly within me. The stillness of walking into an empty room, Chatters with nothingness. The morning mist yells with oblivion. The setting sun yields dissonance of silence. The nonexistence sound of an empty bed, Chimes with a passion that cannot be filled. Quietly doing daily task, still Loneliness rings in my head. My heart roar with loneliness, A loneliness that screams of love for you. I cannot quiet the howling within my soul. I crave for the sound of your love.

About the Book
The definition of poetry is the art of rhythmical composition, written or spoken, for exciting pleasure by beautiful, imaginative, or elevated thoughts. To me poetry is much more; it’s the expression of life. It relates feelings, it paints pictures, and it says who you are. Most poets, including myself, draw upon life to write poetry. I served 23 years in the U.S. Navy. After retiring from the Navy I spent another 20 years in the work force. I currently teach at a local college. Other than family and friends the most important thing in my life is writing. The poems in this book reflect life. It tells of love both past and present. It relates happiness and sadness. The poems in this book are poems of LIFE.
