The Poetry of James Christopher Morehead

Dreams, Experiences and Midnight Musings

 

The poems shared on these pages span many years past and (hopefully) many years to come.  From high school through university, from relationships to marriage to family, I've captured ideas, journeys, emotions and experiences.

 

Writers write for the experience of creating something new - and in the hope that what they write may be read and meaningful.

 

I have always enjoyed the process of writing poetry - of finding the right word - the fewest words - the sound of words - the structure of words.

"If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter."

   Marcus T. Cicero

 

"Away! away! for I will fly to thee,

   Not charioted by Bacchus and his pards,

But on the viewless wings of Poetry"

   Keats
