About Ken

I’m very pleased you came by for a visit.

My family roots are in Texas and Arkansas (USA.)

I was born in Texas and Marble Falls, Texas

Is my home town, though I was born in Hutto, Texas.

The family moved to Oregon (USA) when I was fourteen.

After I served several years in the US Navy,

I met my wife Ardelle of more than forty years.

We are retired and living in McMinnville, Oregon.

I started writing poetry in 2003 and can’t say why.

I was sitting at the kitchen table one day and there was

A tablet and pencil lying before me, I began writing

And in a few minutes had written my first poem.

I trust my writing has improved since then.

As you read my poems, I hope they will arouse

Some type of emotional experience in you.

In my poetry you won’t find “greeting card” rhymes,

My poems won’t make you “feel good” all the time

But if they make you ponder, cry or smile

Then the writing was worth the while.

Please drop by and visit my site,

I sure hope you have an enjoyable time.

You are welcome to sign my guestbook

And of course feel free to email me anytime.

God bless you and I wish you health and happiness,

Ken
