little book of Wannabe Poems (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781977217769)

What justifies a poem? What is poetry?

Who knows for certain why anyone would want to write words and try to call them poems. For me, the desire to know and do poetry became a life's longing when I was in the fourth grade and my teacher introduced us to poems by saying that poets are the people who see, feel, and know what life is. I started my education in literature and made my career in science. Along the way, I tried now and again to see, feel, and know I lived. What follows is what I wannabe the evidence of the quest.
