Welcome to my page!

I am a man of many interests - TOO many, I think, lol - and because of that I never gave writing the attention I should have when I was young. I started writing poetry in December of 2016, and joined Poetry Soup at the same time. I am currently working on an R&B/Soul album for a major label, so, as has usually been the case, poetry does not get the time I'd like to give it, (though I plan to change that in the future, and write a book-or-two, a sci-fi novel and an autobiography) ...

I like to incorporate classic styles and phrasing into a modern frame when I write poetry, and try to cover a wide range of genres, but I enjoy the darkly sensual the most, despite its limited audience. I hope you'll give my rather unusual style a chance, read a piece-or-two, and leave a comment, if you'd be so kind. I also hope you'll visit my music web site as well, (at the following address under my moniker "Bahku") - mostly (very) old recordings there, but also a snippet of the first single coming, and more new stuff soon!

www.bahku.com

Thanks for stopping by my page - blessings!

Do you have a Rhyming poem?

Select four lines from one that you feel can stand on their own. Copy them, then paste them to a "New Poem" form, add a NEW title, and you're done!

Easy as pie, and we all LOVE pie, right? And if not, it's also easy as cake ...

Six spots left as of this posting, so get one in while you can!

Thank you!

Hi, Greg. That was a cute blog promoting your form. I love a form where we can just look through our poems to find one that stands on it own!
