The title poem of Amidst the chilling storm was
inspired by my father as he was telling me stories
of when he was a shepherd boy fending off the
wild storms and chasing the cunning wolves as
he was trying to protect his flock of sheep.
The book is a collection of my earliest poems and the
poem Beauty rises above the weeds is inspired by my
mother who always instilled in me a nostalgic yet simple
way to reflect beauty I was also inspired by Chuck Norris
to write the poem win every fight as he always did
win in all of his martial arts movies. And the poem
Streetfighter was inspired by Jean Claude Van Damme
who moves passionately glorious in every film.
As always I wish the reader some happy moments
reading my poetry for whom I share with all.
