where she regularly takes part in a writer's workshop and giving programs of
her poetry. She enjoys entering poetry contests far and wide and has had the
pleasure in past years of winning fi rst place in the Dancing Poetry Contest and
watching as dancers choreographed the words from her poem, "Imagine the
Harvest." Her poem, "At the Irish Pub" was entered in a poet laureate contest
where it won fi rst place among several hundred entries. Both of these poems
were published in MY HEART SINGS in 2011.
Raynette grew up in New Mexico and then lived in Colorado Springs, Colorado
where she was a wife, mother, teacher, and always a poet. She graduated from
Colorado College and the University of Colorado. Her three daughters and
seven grandchildren bring her memories to cherish of a life lived to the fullest.
RAINBOW PROMISES is her sixth book of poetry published by X-Libris. She
uses her books of poetry in fund raisers for her church and other organizations.
Her books include HARSH COUNTRY, EARTHEN JAR, PRELUDES TO AN
HALLELUJAH CHORD, MY HEART SINGS, and THE SEA IS CALLING;
