I write many different kinds of poems.

A couple are fears I have had since I was a kid. 1 is like a continuation.
A couple pertaining to my parent's death and missing them.
1 is from an old bleack and white "Twilight Zone" episode.
One I did when I was making french fries for dinner.
A few is about lost loves.
A couple are odes to Halloween and Mother Nature.
1 is some feelings I had once.
1 is from a story I heard about the Tsunami a few years ago.
And there are more.

My poems don't have a rythm or even ryhm(sp). Some of them makes you think and wonder at the end and some makes you think of one way until you get to the end and POW it is totally different from what you thought it was.

I have poems from love, death, funny, pretty, tear jerking, passion, fear, sexy, and down right confusing.

They are like small short stories and you have to read between the lines to get what the poem is saying. Each of them has a story behind it.

I do have a couple on here under "Scroll's Poetry Snippets". Enjoy  .

Usually I try to capture a feeling that I have during a period of time.  The fun part is finding it a few years later and seeing how well I actually did.
