Davide's poems started appearing in magazines in 1999. He started writing exclusively in English in 1993, dedicating a poem to a group of his students in the school where he still teaches English outside Venice.

He considers his greatest achievements so far having been published in Orbis 120 (the last number edited by Mike Shields), Stand, Dream Catcher and recently in Event (Canada), In the Red and New Contrasts (South Africa).

Davide's poems have appeared in more than one hundred literary magazines, which he considers important although he believes it's more important feeling he can continue to catch that fundamentally elusive muse that gives birth to poems.
