Welcome to my (Robert G. Brown's) poetry collections. I have been writing poetry almost as long as I have been writing at all, and have diligently collected and tuned and edited my poetry over decades. Below are two books of poetry made available for free via the web. There are poems on many subjects -- the nature of God, love, nature, both whimsical and very serious indeed. There is an epic poem about an event (global nuclear war) that has not happened yet, but is even now one possible description of our ending as a species. I grew up with the constant threat of nuclear annihilation and (as a physicist) pretty well understood how it would come about. There are a number of poetic images of Buddha -- I am not exactly a Buddhist, but then, Buddha (any of them) wasn't a Buddhist either.

Feel free to browse the poetry collections below and to bookmark or make personal copies of any that you like. I also welcome comments or feedback -- it is always lovely to hear from a reader that they found my poetry and particularly liked or were moved by (or even disliked) some particular poem. There is a link to my email address immediately below.
