More DescriptionPortal Poems is written for grown-up grownups, and can be read by everyone for pleasure and enlightenment. These 225 poems were written in the 8th and 9th decades of the poet's life, and have not been previously published. The poems were written to provide a perspective on aging from someone living it--telling the "inside story" of the experience--that will offer insight and inspiration for the reader. Humor and enthusiasm are melded into the lines that will encourage readers to make important connections with their own lives. In his own way, the poet, who has been writing for 70 years, has taken on the task of demystifying questions people have always asked about what it is like to grow old.
