I was born in 1946 and started writing poetry when about 16 years old. In the 1970's I occasionally had poems published in a local newspaper while living in Delaware (belated thanks to editor E.A.Barrell!) and more recently (I offer no explanation for the hiatus other than "life in the way") have been posting poems and short essays at the Weather Underground blog site under the name "EarlB".

Changes at that site are making my posts less visible, so I have begun transferring poems posted there over the past 6 years to this site. Because of the science/nature emphasis of the website, my poems over the past years have had a loose "nature" theme to them.

Eventually, I hope to accumulate enough decent poems (and courage) to publish a small book  of poems.

Having them scrutinized by others in the field will help me improve technique.
