I have given this book of poems the title Swan Songs since, as it implies, swan song means the last appearance of someone or some thing. I don't plan to publish another book of poetry and for that reason this title. A well-known poet once said something to the effect, "If a poet writes one memorial poem in his lifetime, he should be happy," and since this is my third book, I feel I have little more to offer. In this book, you will find many subjects, most of which I have encountered and about which I wrote a poem. Some are humorous, but the majority are thoughtful and serious. I hope you will take the time to read the poems whose titles draw your interest.
