My unemployed neighbor walking his dog
In recent days he walks alone
Victims of the economics of greed
As in all too many times past
The ‘quaint’ homespun virtues will prevail and sustain

About Me
- Clare Gnecco, PhD
- Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States
- I began writing poetry recently after the darkest period in my life. I retired as a statistician in the federal government five years ago because of a chronic progressive autoimmune disease. About a year ago, a major flare threw me into a physical and psychic downward spiral which I didn't think I would survive. I finally obtained relief through medical and psychotherapy. But my true path to wholeness began with deep soul work. I now bow down in gratitude for my illness. It has become my greatest teacher. My poetry is a reflection of that truth. My greatest hope is that others will find true wholeness also. And, if these small poems provide a gateway, I will be twice blessed.
