Larry5000 is a great person to know. he tries and write poetry with feeling and thoughtfulness. He sincerely hopes that his words will touch someone in whatever way that may be.

He started writing poetry when he was in the third grade and has been writing off and on ever since. Unfortunately most of his poetry from that long ago got filed in the waste paper basket and was gone for good.

He loves to write romantic poetry about husbands/wives and some boyfriend/girlfriend, but tries very carefully not to cross the line making it sexual in nature.
His other love is of course Christian Poetry. As a born again Christain he feels it is important for people to understand what God is all about.
It is hard in this day and age to live for the Lord and take a strong stand for Him.

He goes on to say, besides the great commission in Matthew 28:18-20 Jesus also has this to say
"Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven." We should not be ashamed to talk about Lord.

Besides Romantic and Christian poetry he has done greeting card style poems as in birthdays and anniversaries, poems about friendship and general poetry as well.
Ninety-nine percent of his poetry is rhymning, but he hopes to do some free verse and maybe other styles as well. He has done a couple of contests so far while on fanstory but has not won as of yet.

Larry is married to a wonderful woman named Amy and works in the security business. He served over 8 years in the U.S. Navy.
He attends Berea Missionary Baptist Church, where he writes the church bulletin and serves as the song leader as well.

Larry loves scifi related shows, especially Star Trek and is Captain of a cyber internet ship chapter in the IFT fan organization.
