Carpenter Sunrise

There's dirt under my fingernails, sawdust in my hair. I'm proud to say I hammer nails. Install toilets. Hang drywall. Welcome to the construction zone.

Note: I've had to "unpublish" a few poems from this collection because they are going to appear in various magazines. Sorry if you missed them. And a big warm thank-you to all the readers who read and commented and supported me. You've helped me grow as a writer. Hugs to you.
