| Introduction | Welcome to Simply Shady©. I am a member of AHApoetry, happyhaiku, Haiku World, Wild Poetry, AbleMuse Poetry, The Poet Sanctuary, and Strong Verse - my work can be found there as well. All written work displayed is copyrighted as original material of the author of Simply Shady© unless otherwise noted, and all intellectual rights remain property of the author. Thank you to my beautiful and supportive wife Myra, who stands by me always, and Amber, Dylan and Ryan, for sticking with me thru it all, and for allowing me to dream awhile. A special thanks to brother Is Said of the Advance Party, poet and personal friend, Madhava and Vidya for being 'there' for the spirit, and accepting me regardless of my flaws, Robert Bauer for giving me 'New Resonance' - thanks brother, HG Murtha for encouraging me to keep writing, and for Dane (A. Bear) who reminds me by example that I've got it pretty good, and for all the people that stand by me in my journey that lies ahead. The aforementioned people are in no way personally responsible or liable for material on this site. Rather, they are an inspiration to me to keep on keeping on. Peace! |
