Dr. Suess
The first poet I ever heard was Dr. Seuss. Here's a dose of rhythm, rhyme, and crazy characters in the name of the good doctor.

The Bogeyman Band
​Everybody is afraid of something, spiders, snakes, math homework. But amazing things happen when we face our fears. 
The Dawg Doctor
I was driving on a country road down South when I noticed the license plate of the car in front of me saying "Dawg Doc." I started saying it over and over in a slow southern drawl, and here's what came out. 
Poems for Sale

Advertisers have always used the tools of poetry to sell things. In Poems for Sale I poke fun at our buy and sell world.

The Wizard
Merlin! Gandalf! Harry Potter! Discover the wizard in you with my mystical and magical poem. 
Uncle Shel
I was an adult when I first read Shel Silverstein's poetry, but I fell for it like a child. Here's my tribute to the most popular children's poet in the country. 
Blast Off Billy
In the name of Neil Armstrong, Star Trek, Star Wars and all you star gazing poets, I present my intergalactic friend, Blast Off Billy!
