A Look at My Life

Earle Francis Brown

I was lost in my soul.
I looked for meaning.
I worried about my purpose.
I was lost until I turned around,
and saw where I have been.

Earle Francis Brown

I was born in Montego Bay, Jamaica. I was told that I can write, so I wrote and continues to write. I am currently living in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. I enjoy reading "real" poetry. My favorite books are the Pslams, Proverbs and Songs of Solomon.Poetry is not just vocabulary, and use of metaphors and formats. Don't be tricked. Poetry should speak life.
