Growing up in rural Kentucky gave Ronald a deep feeling in his soul for the outdoors. He hunted trapped rode his buckskin mare Old Beauty slept under the stars and cooked supper over an open camp fire. He is a real American patriot. While Ronald worked his way through college he lived at home with his precious mother Mary and father Victor. <P>What a blessing it was for God to have chosen them for his parents. For a time he worked in Venezuela where he met his wife Barb. He has traveled in South and Central America and Europe. Ronald's inspirational poetry is straight from his heart and represents a true appreciation for creation and God's works along with life's experiences and personal observations.<P>©2014 Roanld Franklin Saia (P)2014 Ronald Franklin Saia
