I have been writing since before 1970. Teachers in High school told me I should be a writer. I guess they gave me the confidence . I have not studied each type poem.However I am hoping someone will be able to tell me which category I should say is my poem. What is important is life made me stop for a long while. Now I am back trying to post again and although I burned 14 manuscripts out pure sadness of not having the money to keep sending them out,..I remember each book My dream was to be writer, however life has it's fences and barrios. National library of poetry published a lot of my poetry, Yet I feel it was just a company that used a person to sell collected poems. I did not feel it was legitimate . I have editor letters to some of my manuscripts for keep sake. I was urged by daughter not to give up because I have never given up on anything else in my life. So here I am at least putting them out in the world to read. Thank You
