As the researcher reads, the prophecy unfolds to reveal that, what we have come to know as Satan and his developing hatred for God's creation, man! His horrific attributes begin to take shape as the progress and development of the world proceeds. To establish a counterfeit of the creator's people is on the horizon and due to one poor decision made by Abraham, came the creation for the counterfeit Satan was looking for. The unspoken prophecy began to unfold before the worlds very eyes. To the horror and fear of a race born out of slavery and servitude, a race grew into the bondage of evil and hate. Ishmael was the wild man of the desert as told in Gen. 16: 11 & 12; His hand shall be against every man and every man shall be against him and he shall dwell over against all his brethren. So here we are in the 21st century and the unspoken prophecy has been magnified and the attributes of Satan flourish in the hearts and minds of a single race of people denying their true identity and killing all, while trying to eradicate any evidence of their true origin.

What interests me? The mysterious character and many faces of living things and how it is possible to philosophize about them in a simple way in the form of poetry. I write like a painter. I am an impressionist creating poetic pictures that suggest that the visual culminates in emotion, and the impressions of my emotional surroundings are poured like liquid over the pages of my poetry. Eclectic in style, the "bones" of my poetry are shaped by an awareness of the interaction of trees, birds and flowers. I am in love with their quiet power and I cannot imagine life without them. The moon, the willow, the sea, and even the hidden violet have been my partners, and have dictated what I should write. I believe that while the bedrocks of nature are ever bearing, they remain as mysterious as the hidden springs of human desire that lead us all to listen for the sound of a certain step behind the garden wall. Poetry and art bathe in the same light, and while the artist uses brush strokes, there is a common language between artist and writer. The expressions of the artist on canvas have always been inspirational to me. But the written page is my real obsession.
