DennisP1's profile

Dennis, a Vietnam Vet and product of a turbulent past, has a passion for writing poetry as broad as life, love, fantasy, child abuse and the indifferences of man. The uniqueness of his work comes from his very visual story like style as he draws the reader into a reenactment of a specific event.

A victim of child abuse himself he writes heart breaking poems about his childhood. Yet, intermingles them with the love and hope he has for his and all our children.

His greatest influence was his mother, who’s had her poetry in news paper articles across the country as far back as the Second World War. Often as a child he would sit at the kitchen table in their, too small, country cottage and write happy-go-lucky style poems with her.

Besides poetry, his first love, he likes to take his motorcycle through the winding country side roads, enjoying the fresh country air. At other times, with his canoe, he’ll explore the quiet rivers that meander through the dark moist forests near his home in Norton Massachsettes.

Several of his poems have been featured in local newspaper and  anthologies.
