Joanna fuchs biography the poet

The poems at this site were written by me, Joanna Fuchs, except for the page titled "Favorite Poems," which are mostly famous and antique poems written by others.

Some of the verses here were created by the love of my life, my husband, Karl, who died in 2020.  I discovered many of Karl's poems I didn't know about on a flash drive among his things, and some of them were posted in 2020.
