My Journey: In Poetry and Prose: Volume II

By Thomas L. Poteet

Volume II of Tom Poteet's Journey: in Poetry and Prose continues his journal of weekly postings to his website and, eventually, to Google+. Volume II encompasses the years 2014 and 2015. Those are the final two years of the thirty-eight years that Tom and his family lived in their home in the country in northeastern Maryland.

Poteet wrote his weekly updates in 2012 and 2013, with older poems and newer messages. As he got into 2014 and beyond, he began to intersperse new poems to go along with his messages. He continued this process until early 2020.

Though his four volumes of poetry and prose comprise only the years between 2012 and 2020, the poems, especially those in Volume I and many of the poems and messages, in Volume II, comprise poems going back to the late 1980's and early 1990's. So, even if the four volumes only cover nine years, the poetry covers several decades. These decades, beginning in the late 1980's, cover Poteet's writing journey with his Lord and his Lord's Heavenly Hosts up to this point in his life. These four volumes summarize and delineate Poteet's journey through his poetry and messages.

Poteet has kept the messages, which follow his poems, in the same manner as once posted. The manner of his writings was and is more train-of-thought or stream-of-consciousness than proper grammar. He thought it best to keep the meaning as once expressed, rather than modify by many changes in sentence structure.

Poteet's prayer is that the reader can use some of these poems, along with the prose that accompanies, to get through their days in the years to come; as the reader continues in their own journey.
