These are poems written by e. l. smothers starting when he was a
teen. They are about life, love, friendship and the inspirational
thoughts of a teen. They can be sad or romantic or express life
experience. A few are long, and most are short.
This poetry was written mostly to mark passages in life. Some
were written because I could not get the words out of my head. A few
were written just because......
It seems that even though I did not know why I wrote them when I
did, excepting a few, that time has allowed me to understand what I
was trying to say.
I frequently think of what I have written, as time goes by,
remembering a word or two and the words give me peace and solace,
for that moment.
I trust and hope you will understand them and find a peaceful
moment. The MP3 reading of each poem is my voice and what I
hear when I read them.
