These are the barest of facts about me
for anything more is too much to bear
Updated Biographical Sketch as at 28 February 2006
.
Frederick Kesner was born on August 28 at the university hospital of St. Thomas, in the closing decades of the the 20-th century. He considers himself privileged among countless persons that have lived their lives straddling the ages, bringing human society through transitional processes from one era to another. This is a more important and valuable transition for not only have we moved from one century to another but from one millennium to another. Christened Frederick Alexander III, Freds is known as Ricky to childhood friends and family. In school he was called Erich. As a student he excelled in English, Literature, Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences. At one stage, Fredrick dreamed of being a physician.
"My haunt is the world - it's oceans and forests, cities, and firmament!" One of the CrypticBard's greatest passions is travelling and the great outdoors. Together with Jacqueline, his lifelong love, he aims to travel all the world and one day write of adventures and things learnt. This also helps in the pursuit of his other hobbies of reading, photography, and moving pictures.
This current project is to put together years of writing (sporadic as it may have been) and trying to make some order and sense of the author's soul. The outpouring of the heart is not the easiest thing to manage. "I can write only when not in the thick of living out my life. And I am found usually doing that!"
"But my great artistic passion has always been literary expression so craft and technique are usually waylaid by verbal outbursts. Please tred gently in my gardenn of verse."
ALSO watch out! The end products may not always please.... Or you might say... that isn't a textbook poem. Well thank you for noticing! The ones I have written true to form are in some school archive somewhere or feeding the daffodils in your backyard.
I shall be forever grateful for the precious time that you put aside to read on and to seek the meaning behind my words. Lurking in their shadowed lines you will catch a glimpse of someone familiar or even strange. Is it you? Is it me? Maybe it is us!
So put on your hiking boots and join me in this trek.... With any luck I would have travelled the same path with you on some other page through someone else's writings.
Please enjoy your stay. Linger a while and tell me how your journey went.
Thanks for visiting.
