His Kentucky Smile and an Ireland Dream

About the Author

Kip London's poetry was his catharsis, an outpouring of pure personal expression.  His verses are forthright and genuine; they reveal how he coped with and approached his world.  Kip's friends, family, and experiences all found their way into his compositions.  While he was alive, he took his remarkable wordsmithing a step further by openly sharing these intensely personal pieces of himself with the people for which they were written.  Kip was not a closet poet, keeping his writing hidden like a secret diary. Rather, he recognized that it was his vital connection to those whose friendship and love he valued so much.

Kip was killed in an automobile accident on August 11, 1997, but his poetry still breathes with the stuff of his soul.  His pen was a direct link from his own heart to others...to live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die.
