On the first day, all Danny wanted to do was lie on the bed, look through the crown of the yurt, and gaze into the vast sky. How beautiful it was to be able to look at the hawks gliding overhead, to hear the sounds of nature, and not have to think about anything troublesome. He contemplated the serene blue sky and counted the number of birds that passed before his eyes.

I am an author, poet, humorist, and short story writer living in Long Beach, California. I write about various topics, from my early childhood in Philadelphia to my years as a family therapist and finally to my soul-searching in California. These are poetic narratives that may have humorous or serious content or both. Either way, I hope my poetry and stories resonate with you. My books include Magical Yogis, Uncommon Love Stories, Awkward Grace, Junkyard Souls, and Rain on Cabrillo.
