An Excerpt From
The Unbelievable Believable More Tales from the Baron
Poetry Book By Billy J. Barnum
The Gift
Someone just gave
This man a gift
They said to him
Now you shall live
He sang his heart out
With resounding glee
But it just did not
Set him free
He carried on
And carried tunes
Which brought him to
The month of June
He left the coast
And moved to Maine
He missed his son
It brought him pain
The Unbelievable Believable More Tales from the Baron
This poetry book will make you analyze and question the world around you, give you hope, and bring you on adventures that you would never even imagine. It will also give some sobering truths about reality as we know it. If it makes you profoundly think or feel something, then even P.T. Barnum would agree that it was worth the price of admission.

Billy J. Barnum is widely referred to as “The Simple Mans Poet” because he uses words that are easy to understand and that flow within his poetry. Unlike some other works where you have to stop mid-poem or story to look up a word in the dictionary or on Google. Genius is not figuring out how to squeeze as many adjectives or big words into a story but being creatively simplistic.
Since his first books release, he still resides in Connecticut as a lifelong resident born and raised. He enjoys the beauty that Connecticut has to offer and loves the four seasons. He often talks to his close friends and relatives about the pride that he feels when he drives by the P.T. Barnum statue at Seaside Park in Bridgeport then tells stories about the “Greatest Showman on Earth” that his last name derives from. He is also very fond of the Barnum Museum.
