Dear Joey:
As you might know I have been dealing with Lymphoma , and other cancers. My lymphoma I am told cannot be cured , but the others can. I am diability retired, and I do drive for Gloucester Taxi & Livery on a on call basis. To try and raise money to help defray increasing costs in my battle I have put together a book of my writings called ‘ Etchings from my Heart & Soul ‘ I went to Seaside Graphics and they put it all together for me . Dean of George’s fame has given me permission to sell my books at his place. I have to get $20.00 each , because there is not much profit . I am also giving away a framed copy of my writings. So Joey it has not been easy , but this is my only source. I thank you for reading my request and hope that Good Morning Gloucester will pass it on. As you know my writings are inCapeannsalon.com and petertoddpoet.co, or people can just google my name.
I was born in Gloucester on January 10th,1943. I was born in my grandmothers spare room about 100 feet away from the railroad tracks at the Cedar St. crossing.
Sincerely & Respctfully
Peter A. Todd
Thanks Joey
Words of the Vision of the Soul

Poetry must and always be of the soul
A rendering of love of the writer’s heart
It should contain a vision of time yet to unfold
The emotions of its meaning from the start
Poetry is as ancient as from the Psalms of David
Such a faithful and God fearing man
The description of what is within the inner beauty
Of loved ones we embrace and cherish dear
Or the vision a mountain and morning clearing
It is the very existence of our inner tears
Of words to be treasured through the sands of time
A vision for the blind of pleasures to unfold
Expressions of love in our thoughts hard to find
Poetry more precious than the world and all its gold
It’s the echo of ones heart to the impaired of hearing
The comforting of mind in sadness cast
The reflection of the soul and ones awakening nearing
It’s etched in silver within the souls reflection matched
