The purpose of My Times and Rhymes was to release to the world the poems I had written over the years, but few people had ever read. These poems were written about my experiences in life and love or the experiences of others I have known. Most of these poems were written in high school and college. A number of pieces were published in college, but that was as far as my writing career went. When I recently rediscovered my poems, I begin writing again with thoughts of getting them published. I hope you enjoy this collection of poems.
