He received his first letter from
Gov. William Stratton which
prompted him to write more. He
has received letters from others
including Queen Elizabeth, Fidel

English has published 2,000
poems and about eight books of his
poems are scheduled for
publication. "I am looking to have
my poems in stores all over the
country," he said.
You have to hear his poems to
get a feeling of what he is talking
about. English said, "I baffle the
English departments all over the
world because the meaning of my
poetry is so simple they miss it,
they look for something in a high
pitch."
He has a philosophy that God is
everywhere and we are part of
God. In the Bible it says "Upon this
