Hold On 

I have to say that I feel lucky being able to write such beautiful material. The magic is that when I start writing a new poem, it grows on me. The more I get into this poem, the easier it becomes. Thoughts start coming without even thinking about it. At least thats how it feels, and this feeling is just wonderful.

God is a big inspiration to me, and I know that he believes in me, like I believe in him. Without God, this wouldve never been possible.

Im very happy to be able to share this gift with you all. This is what Ive always wanted to dosharing with the people, giving to the world, making people richer with thoughts and feelings. Let these poems be a treasure and inspiration for us all.

About the author

I was born January 4, 1958. I became interested in writing—but not just writing ’cause writing a book is only one story. I wanted to create or make new stories over and over. So I started writing poetry—not just a few lines, but in a way that nobody else does it, a whole page with a whole new story.

In a simple manner, it’s poetry for everybody, where one doesn’t need a dictionary to understand, feel, and recognize what the poem is about. Wherever I was, I just started writing a few lines on a piece of paper or on a beer mat. Sometimes these lines came easy; sometimes it took me many weeks to complete a poem.
