Jimmie is a poet and he know it

Jimmie is a poet and he know it

Date on poem means only the day it was corrected and formatted.

The actual date the poem was written may stretch over months or years.

Welcome to my heart land...the template of my soul...

.................Destiny dictates the poet must shout out their poems to all who will listen in the world. Their creations are the small quite voices from ages past and faint murmerings floating in the ether from the future. Broken hearts find blessed relief in poetic verse and mend to love again. Eternal love cast in the foundry of ryhme spans the ages. Poetry is the preffered language of the God of the Bible. May our words be acceptable to Him. Jimmie Dale Martin, Sr

Let love and joy make poetry in your heart today...
Joy is the fragrance that makes the flower of life multi dimensional. It does not chase away sadness but ferments to produce the fine wine of mature happiness.jdm4/10/96


A lot of these poems were written longing for my wife at home and created in the solitude of Midway Island. The sixteen months I spent on Midway were a test in lonesomeness. Only in the past few years here at the end of my days have I recaptured my creativity for verse. Most of my life after the Navy was in advertising selling and writing flowery ads.
