I'm a writer. I've done several types of writing, including essays and short stories, but my favorite type of writing is poetry. There have been times in my life that I was in a dark place and it was my best outlet. These are the poems that came from that dark place. I hope you enjoy.

Grandpa

I remember some things about you
Like your face and m&m’s
Your little house and wiener dogs
And other odds and ends.

My heart is full of love for you
I never will forget
I didn’t get to say goodbye
My parents still regret.

Someday I’ll tell my children
How good you were to me
Their great-grandpa Ronnald Hanes
Was the best grandpa he could be.

~This poem is dedicated to my Grandpa Hanes who died when I was 5 years-old.
