THE INTRIGUING TITLE OF DIE DAILY CALLS FOR THE EXPLANATION THAT DIE IS AN ACRONYM FOR DREAM, IMPROVE, ENJOY. THE ELEVEN CHAPTER TITLES PROVIDE INSIGHT INTO THE SUBJECTS COVERED:

WELCOME TO MY POETRY RIVER. I HOPE I DO DELIVER

DAILY I DIE, THAT I DO TRY

TO COMMUNICATE IS REALLY GREAT

TAKE A WALK AND TRY SELF-TALK

I DONT MIND BEING BLIND

REFLECT, CONNECT, AND RESPECT

LETS DELVE INTO THE TWELVE

HUMOR OR RUMOR

FROM MY PALS BOTH GUYS AND GALS

OUR DANCE WITH ROMANCE

I AM CAUGHT WITH A LITTLE AFTER-THOUGHT

MOST OF THE 95 POEMS ARE PRECEDED BY AN EXPLANATION OR STORY WHICH ADDS MEANING, UNDERSTANDING, AND OFTEN HUMOR. WHEN YOU READ WHAT I HOPE IS FOR YOU A BUOYANT AND EXCITING BOOK, YOU WILL KNOW ME RATHER WELL.

SAMPLE STANZAS FROM TWO SEPARATE POEMS FOLLOW:

I START EACH AND EVERY DAY
IN A POSITIVE AND JOYFUL WAY.
EACH MORNING AS I THROW BACK THE SHEETS,
THIS DAY IM EXUBERANT TO GREET!

SO WHETHER YOURE YOUNG OR WHETHER YOURE OLD
TAKE TIME TO DREAM AND LET LIFE UNFOLD.
SET TIME ASIDE TO DREAM AND REST,
DREAMS WILL FILL YOUR LIFE WITH ZEST.
