May 2016

Just starting to dip my toes into the poetry pool. I am a very technical person (I work in flight simulation) and feel I need to broaden my horizons. I remember when I had to take an art course in college. I was convinced I would hate it, but it was one of my favorites (I really like the Baroque and Impressionist periods). Thought I may as well give poetry a shot. I read a little Frost tonight and really liked it- he paints a great picture.
