Adrian Antique Biography

I am now fifty years of age. I have loved reading poems since i could remember and my favorite poets are Robert Frost and Rilke. I have been trying to write my own kind of poetry since I was ten and was given the privilege to take part in Silliman University's National Writers Workshop in 1990. I have participated in several other workshops and competitions, too. But I believe, so much more than just weaving words and images, poetry should come from the heart and it is a necessity out of the passion and wonder that comes from our human depth. I write poems because it is part of my being. I stopped writing when my wife died of cancer 2011. Yet, when our only son grew up and started writing on his own, I knew I had to write with him. Now, poetry for us has become an adventure of sorts: Me, my son, Joshua, and our verses from the heart. Thank you Poemhunter.com and all who are part of this... and to Bri Edwards who asked that my bio be less cryptic... From the heart. Adrian
