Synopsis

I really never thought much about becoming a poet. My writing poetry was a way of expressing my innermost feelings about things that affected my life or that I enjoyed or cared about. I think that you will sense a growing mataurity in my writing as you read more of my poems. My poems touch on a number of subjects such as life, death, nature, love of family, and love of God while others reflect on just ordinary things that each of us deal with in our lives.I hope that reading these poems causes each of us to think more deeply about who we are and who we want to become. I hope some of them make us laugh at ourselves while others give us a different perspective about life. I feel that God meant for this gift of poetry to be shared with others. That is why it is being published.Enjoy the journey.Wayne Hampton

Biographie de l'auteur

Hi, my name is Wayne Hampton. I was raised in a small town in the 1950s. I grew up enjoying my family and friends like most kids back then. That and church formed the basis of my beliefs, which I have to this day. After highschool, I joined the military and ended up in Germany. While in Europe. I found a love for art, travel and history which I still enjoy.I attended college at the University of Texas at El Paso then worked for many years in the oil and gas industry. I am now retired and live in the beautiful Texas Hill Country.My wife of forty years and I met in a church choir. We still sing together. Several years later I became a licensed local pastor in The United Methodist Church and enjoyed preaching for several years. We have two children and three grandchildren whom we love and enjoy very much.I look forward to sharing my poetry with you. I think you will find that it talks about many of the things that you have experienced in your life as well.
