Paul ScollanThe author is a retired licensed clinical social worker living in Meriden, Connecticut, his home of thirty-five years. He is married with five sons and three grandchildren. His retirement years have been devoted to family and friends, writing, readin, pretending to be a master gardener, and volunteering as a hospice companion and a tutor to students of English as a second language. A Vietnam veteran, he also puts time and passion into gun control advocacy and other causes. BAGFUL OF BAGS is his third book of poetry. He often writes love poems about ordinary people, often gone unnoticed and unrecognized, who show extraordinary grit and courage in their will to survive, trudging forward against all odds. Other subjects are more attuned to the spiritual, a theme that weaves in and out of all his poetry. Read More Read Less
