    About this ebook

    i have been writing poetry since I was in high school.
    In college at Sacred Heart in Houston, Texas I majored in English Literature.

    Later I took writing courses through the mail.
    I have also studied many poets, my favorite being Emily Dickinson.

    I belonged to Back To Word a poetry group that met at the Arts Alliance in Clear Lake, Tx. for four years.

    I continue to work on my poetry and try to write at least two poems a week.

    I have always enjoyed writing, especially poetry which helps me express my feelings better than I am able to in speaking.
    I also enjoy sharing my poems with my friends.
    I enjoy playing with words and creating something that didn't exist before.

    I live in a rather remote area called Texas City, Tx which is between Houston and Galveston.
    I was born in Galveston, Tx or On The Island as people from here like to say.

    I am a mother of two grown children, Jennifer and Jon and have a granddaughter, Makyla.

    I write on many different subjects and enjoy sharing my poetry with family and friends.
    Many of my poems have been written about some of my friends and family. I feel the people in my life have greatly contributed to my poetry.

    I also believe that writing is a gift given to me by God and I want to share it with the world.

      Apr 20, 2021

      It is a squalid time. The body grows tired of being a body. Sweat. Always. A thin film of it on the skin. Do not say dewy. Do not say glisten. I dream of endless green. Of wet. Of rain hammering the Earth. Of buds sprouting. I want to insist on life
