“Everyone is Special in their special way

From Doctors curing people to farmers curing hay”

– James William Cummings

James William Cummings was born in 1960 and raised in Dixmont, Maine, a small rural community. He graduated from high school in the New Port area and from Nokomis Regional High School in 1978. In 1979, he worked for Cianbro Corporation in Pittsfield. He was epileptic, so he stayed at home for 8 years before starting work at Stinson Seafood Company in Belfast, Maine in 1987 until the plant closed in 2001.

In January 1989, Cummings began submitting poetry to the Republican Journal and the Waldo Independent (both Belfast, Maine) newspapers; later that year, he joined the World of Poetry group and had poetry published in several of their anthologies. He was approached by the International Society of Poets, which later became Poetry.com on the internet, and has been entering poems in Sparrowgrass Poetry Forum contests as well as sending a couple of poems to the United Nations Poets for Peace. Several of his coworkers had admired his work, which any poet would treasure. Some of our elected officials, as well as three presidents, have expressed their appreciation.

His book, “The Coming Age and Other Poems,” is a collection of poems that tackle life, love, growth, society, and family. It tells the truth and reality of the world we live in.

“I believe in the dream of the people who defied the foreign King who claimed to rule them and, in the Government, set in place by the Continental Congress in 1787 avowing ourselves responsible first to God to have such rights given to us by the Almighty and not by any supposed government as We the People are the first and only legal government as a whole.” – James William Cummings
