Poets Can't Sing  is about courage and the ability to overcome the worst that life can throw at you an comeong straight from the heart.   The  end of WWII brought the victors home to a world changed forever; not all came back whole. Some, who will never heal, are admitted to the Veteran's Hospital in San Francisco, where they are tucked away, out of sight and mind, from a nation that does not want to be reminded of the worst that men can do to each other in the dark of war. Stella Tate, a senior nurse, has almost run out of compassion, when she is pushed to her limit by two blind men who can not stand the sight of each other, and a Japanese-American (Nisei) medic who must confront a China Marine who has been beaten down by five brutal years of capitivity as a POW. Each on their own terms, dtruggle to break through potent barriers of prejudice, fear, and greed. When medical care falls short, Stella discovers that there are miracles to be found within the musical genious of Earl Crier, a blind crooner with a special gift for singing the blues. Stella's job is on the line when the challenges the corrupt hospital administrator. Her life is in jeapardy when she is forced to protect the two blind men from Elroy Hawks, who will stop at nothing to line his pocket. Elroy loses the first round driving the nightingale, the two blind men, a crippled marine, and a Nisei war hero out onto the more hostile streets of San Francisco where Elroy  follows seeking revenge. Stella leaves San Frnancisco because she is afraid to admit that she has fallen in love with Earl only to return facing a desperate search to find her love. She buys a vacant piano bar for Him while fearing that they will never be united. Chance and luck bring them together, unfortunely leaving a trail for Elroy to follow,               3
