Jeff Kyser Biography

Jeff Kyser is a retired software developer who lives with his wife Frances right ‘round the bend in rural Lacey’s Spring, Alabama. A late comer to the world of poetry, he has been writing contemplative and whimsical pieces on family, on redemption, and on faith for the last several years. His eight grandchildren are the source for much of his inspiration, fueling a desire to spur their imagination and to share his life’s journey with them.

Hi Jeff: Thanks for considering my poem and I appreciate the HM. I must admit I missed seeing the mention of New Poems. Will pay more attention next time. I promise. SuZ

Hey Jeff, I knew that my poem wasn't in line with what you had in mind or were looking for, but I did enjoy writing for your contest. Congratulations to all of those folks who earned a placement.

It was fine, Jeff. The interpretation of two words "awe" and "fascination" could go in any direction. I wrote about awe; most, it appears, wrote about fascination. Good job with the contest. I'm looking forward to your next one. You are quite imaginative.

Hey Milt, thanks for the entry. I think my guidelines were overly broad, and produced a very diverse set of entries. This was my third try at a contest, will give more thought to the next one.
