George Wm. Weber, born in Chicago, September 26, 1927. I have a younger brother, Tom. I was married to my first wife at the age of seventeen. We had eight children. Our first child died soon after being born. I have four grandchildren, and a great-grandchild, with another due later this year. I started to write when my wife became ill, and after a bit, I joined a couple of poetry clubs where we read our poems and discussed them with each other. My wife passed away on December 26, 1997. I was alone for four years before seeking a new companion who, after a bit, became my wife and companion. I continued to write, and one day I wrote a child's tale that is the story of a cricket, lizard, and mockingbird. I continue to write what I call poetry, and that's me!
