About me

        I am a  divorced lady. Worked full time- raised five children- his and mine. We had no ours-recoken the dog Pebbles was the ours. I will not go into much detail here only to say- I am now enjoying my life as a single woman.
        I once read that our faults are holes in  our life that lets the  light shine through-well I am full of those holes. I feel I have learned much and hope by sharing my experiences that it may help others avoid  some of  pitfalls I had. I know how  to make  my own sunshine on those cloudy days! I am now retired and do whatever I want!
        I am a romantic and believe in love.  A dreamer in every sense of the word. A fantastic imagination.. I think this describes me well and is my modivation for my poetry.  I love people  and have never met anybody I don't like. There is good in everyone and we all have our faults- we should embrace our own as well as those found in others
      I had a wonderful childhood. Never an unhappy day. My folks always walked the walk and talked the talk and still do to  this day- I had the example of what "real love" is. My writing reflects so much of this love-

THE LITTLE DUCK IN THE BIG POND The pond had much activity yet no one seemed to see The little duck by waters edge, seemed frightened as could be The little duck had lost her way, her home she could not find She heard the sound coming from pond, others of her kind The other ducks where having fun and never looked her way With a loud quack, she sent a message, I too would like to play Beside her sat frog on lily pad, he seemed lonely too He looked at the duck, and said, "I'll be a friend to you!" "You Don't even know me," Said the little duck, with sadness in her eyes I'm not your breed, bu...
