Original Poetry and Stories

 Greetings fellow writers, readers and poets. I truly enjoy reading and writing spooky poetry. In the summer months I reside in Oregon. During the winter months I now check out of the snow and cold, to enjoy my artist friends in and around southern Arizona. I was born in California, lived in the rainy sections of Washington and Oregon as a youngster, moved to the midwest during my teenage years and thankfully landed back in Oregon in time to fall in love, marry and raise a family of five. All of whom are now adults. I am a rancher by trade. I've raised quarter and paint horses for thirty plus years. During those years I showed halter and pleasure horses, trained two and three year olds, boarded (provided housing), gave english and western lessons, and hauled rodeo queens around the country. I loved that life and all the people I was lucky enough to be connected to because of it. I have semi retired and my wonderful partner picked up the slack, so I was able to pursue other projects. I hope to continue to remain healthie enough to warm up horses for my aging stiff clients, and the handful of young children that still need me in order to keep them out of harms way. Why, I whisper, semi-retiring. Horses have been a large part of my life. I love to travel, paint, swim, and run. I am a health nut and consider myself spiritual. I hope my new friends at PnP will be able to put up with my twisted sense of humor. Allow me to vent in the spooky fashion I have come to truly enjoy, writing. Nice to meet you, thanks for listening.
