: About Me

Writing has always been a part of what I do-whether it be vocation or avocation. However, my most recent endeavors with writing have been as a poet, composer and a writer of various articles.

Helium.com has proved to be a catalyst for me to venture into new avenues of expression and for that I am grateful.

Current and past avocations have all been in an artistic vein-singing, vocal coaching, musician. All have been wonderful, uplifting outlets for creativity. But this new challenge of focusing thoughts around a question or taking a stand on an issue is more compelling and thought-provoking. It extends my boundaries and entices me to dig more deeply into reflection on my own experiences in life.

Writing can take me wherever it leads. I'm ready for the challenge and the adventure.

Into Your Hands... Neither angel nor devil But a wee bit of both We bring your daughter Grandma, Mom, Mrs. C, Ellie, Eleanor Back home in her present form Forever to rest Beside her lifelong partner Grandpap, Dad, Pappap, Mr. C, Merrell Guide her, watch over her Bring her peace From a lifetime of serving others Free from all pain Show her your love Let her spirit join Glowing in the eternal mirror of life One universal light Her lighther lifeshines on Reflected in each one of us here Her undaunted spirit lingers And lives. Give em hell, mom And make sure that everyone Does everything right.
