By

Sharon Wiegand

Sharon Wiegand was born in Oklahoma

The year 1949. She lived in a rural area

Outside the small town of Pond Creek ,

And later moved to Tonkawa during her

Teenage years. She moved to California

After getting married at the old age of

17. Her first marriage only lasted a few

Years. She was divorced and remarried

In march of 1985. This book depicts her

Marred childhood and her life with her

Present husband and family. I hope these

Poems are enjoyable by all.

7 Astronauts

The Columbia space shuttle

Exploded in air and crashed

In Texas over many miles,

Debris filled the countryside.

An educated group of seven

Were excited to see new horizons

And what may exist among

The stars.

They were never afraid to go.

They wanted to see what lies ahead.

Can there be life anywhere else

And what can we learn from our data?

I am so proud of those 7

Who made strives in their lives

And gave a sophisticated look

At the gains we should make in the future.

I am proud and thankful for you

Rick, Kalpana, William, David, Laurel,

Michael and IIan. We pray for you

Every day.
