POEMS

James Troy Turner (Troy) has been writing poetry for many years. The original poems published herein were written on napkins, on the pages of notebooks, journals, and legal pads, to name a few-whatever paper Troy had handy when inspiration came. Through the years he saved his verse, finally deciding to bring it to publication.
Be prepared to look at the depths of the heart and beliefs of a man who loves his friends and family, his country and his God. These pieces of honest, heartfelt verse express hopes and disappointments, doubts and faith, failures and successes.
If you have ever given allegiance to God and country, have loved and lost, struggled to make ends meet and to make sense of life ... especially if you remember the era of the Vietnam War, of which Mr. Turner is a veteran ... then you will relate to the feelings expressed in these poems.
