Chris Embrick Biography

Blue skies gave way to hues of gold
As I surveyed the forest deep
Well beyond my intended stroll
...

Hidden in last Summer's hay
Soft her breathing, restful purring
And in a bundle, kittens five
From peaceful naps began stirring
...

With great anguish the day began
death severed love's embrace
a life of promises and plans
with one last breath time erased
...

When the poet's work is well done
The poem captures what was sought
When poet and poem are one
There's little room for higher thought.
...

The rule of thumb is never quit
So if you fail, get over it
Listen to what wise men said
Don't leave your dreams asleep in bed.
