Enjoyable Poems

Our Story

A deep-sea diver turned elementary school teacher had a vision about Useful, Accessible, Enjoyable poetry.  Along the way, he fell in love with an Office Manager/Controller who started writing poetry as a child to make her mark on the hearts of friends and family.  PoetSpeak™ began with a weekly column in an Alaska newspaper.  It moved from there to performances in the Koinea Hall at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon.  It is the passion of a husband and wife team who met because of their poetry, mutual friends who knew they each wrote poetry insisted that they meet. Twenty plus years later, they are still sharing their love for poetry and each other in a peaceful acreage in Middle Tennessee.
