Divine Doggerel

Here I will periodically post original poems I have written that you will hopefully find humorous and perhaps even enlightening. They may have little to do with my coaching, workshops, or speaking engagements. The literal definition of “doggerel” (from the Middle Ages) is ‘comic verse composed in irregular rhythm,’ or ‘verse or words that are badly written or expressed.’ So, if you start with that expectation, you may be pleased with what you find. I call these poems “Divine” Doggerel because they often include observations about the human condition or our journeys together, as in Divine Comedy. Enjoy. Your comments are welcome.
