Our American Lives Keith S Harris

VOLUME - 1 100 Poems I've always been of the belief that poetry shouldn't be elitist, but instead should be a medium that all can enjoy without scholarly interpretation. Take away "Roses are Red", and a certain limerick about a gentleman from Nantucket, and I'm afraid many of us would be hard pressed to recite a poem of our liking, that wasn't learned by rote during our school days. So what's my "go to" style you may be asking? It's definitely rhyme-poetry, and my subject matter is as broad and deep as the world we live in. I am fascinated by everything, and my curiosity continually leads me to write on new topics. My commitment is to craft a story of interest on the particular topic. I am obsessive in choosing the right combination of words, and creating it within a tight rhyme format. My goal is that it's a pleasurable experience for the reader, being easy to follow, and rewarding to read. So now, celebrating forty years of writing poetry, and with hundreds of poems to offer, I have decided to begin sharing my collection.
