He began to write small poems when he signed his name, not realizing how certain people always looked forward to that poem, until one year, his sister in law, sounding hurt, asked, “Where is my poem?” From that day on, he has written about any and every topic, Jesus being his favorite.
Carmine was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1932. He graduated from St John’s University with a teaching degree. From there he went into teaching in Plainedge School District in New York. He taught for twenty-eight wonderful years and was cosponsor of the history club, called the Yorkers. Today he lives on Long Island with his wife, Mary Jo. He has three wonderful adult children, of whom he is very proud, and two marvelous sons-in-law. His four fabulous granddaughters enrich his life immensely.
As a young man, he helped to raise his nephews, one of which had cerebral palsy. His sister-in-law died during childbirth with this child, and this has given him his philosophy of life. No one knows the hour of their demise, so we must live every day as if it is our last. His great faith in Jesus has given him much strength to live his life in that manner and to communicate that idea to anyone who will listen.view less
