I have been writing [poetry and songs] since 1993. Some have enjoyed airplay in the Houston, Texas market. I wrote a book [POP GOES THE POETRY] in 2007 it is at AMAZON.COM and other online bookstores worldwide. I value intelligence over looks for intelligence is an ever growing aspect of a person. I have what I call the basketball theory the harder life thows me down the higher I bounce back. It has happened to me in my health, wealth and marriage. However I am still here and happier than many others that share this planet. If you find this is your credo also I would really like to have you contact me. I have lived in many different places in my life, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee,Missouri, Texas And California. I took a little from each experience and applied it to myself. From the heat and rain to the cold and to the beaches and mountains from the country to the city. I hope this has made me a better and more forgiving and more understanding person. But the only way you will know for sure is to contact me. You will find that I judge not and hope no one judges me for that is God's reason for being our creator.

I walk [25 miles a week] and spend a lot of time reading or online. I retired in 1998 from Union Pacific Railroad due to a health problem. I have 3 grown children from my 23 year marriage that ended in 2001.I take the the time to watch and learn everyday from my enviroment. I recently started my radio station at

I hope will listen and tell me what you think about it. Ralph

[My sensitivity to others feelings and mood helps me in my writing poems and songs. I am very good at condensing feelings into words.]

My eyes are hazel and very deep as is my mind as I ponder the places we all live.

I like anything by Stephen King. Pixar animated movies, horror movies, love movies. I eat simply and include salads in my daily diet. I write and like Pop and country music.

My netbook, cellphone,car, [my salvation by Jesus Christ]
, a place to live with all the comforts and finally[ LSU FOOTBALL GEAUX TIGERS!!!]

How fast life can change and how precious each second of life is to me.

I am online, reading, watching TV, or writing a song or poem. I don't go to bars or use alcoholic drinks.

My health is the most important thing I will ever have and I thank God I am still able to enjoy life.

You want intelligent, thoughtful and always kind conversation with someone.
