I’ve spent my life moving through several worlds; business, nonprofit leadership, and civic service,  and all shape the way I write.

 

I wrote poems decades ago with no thought of publication. Now, years into retirement, I’ve returned to the practice with fresh attention, revisiting early work and writing new poems with fresh attention and a desire to share them. I post poems twice a week at www.WalkWithStan.com and https://substack.com/@walkwithstan

 

My work moves across a few strands:

  • Presence — staying attentive to the moment
  • Personal reflection — making sense of life’s challenges
  • Documentary clarity — honoring the real and the specific
  • Civic reflection — noticing the communities and systems we’re part of
  • Creative discipline — balancing freedom with structure.
