Shirley Brown

I was born in Oakland, California. I went to Castlemont High and graduated in 1965. I had cancer when I was eighteen. Guess I could have died. But I learned over the years you have to think positive and know you will get through all the pain and suffering, and if you want something real bad, well, go for it! Don't get discouraged. Don't give up on your dreams. I wrote three books already. 1. Shirley Brown Book of Poetry 2. Sarah Flannagon in the Case of the Mystery Tunnel 3. Sarah Flanagan Mysteries. My favorites are Perry Mason, Mattlock, Murder She Wrote, and Castle. These are famous authors’ books, so I decided to write my own, Sarah Flanagan Mysteries.

and even all the things around us has its

ups and downs

It doesn’t matter, if your near me

O’ I can’t take this sitting down

do-do-do-do-do-de-dew

because I love you so

And I can’t let you go

 When we make love

When we make love

I feel so good inside

O’ I can remember the life we had

It was so good

We had are quarrels, we had are

Ups and downs

but of all the sorrow we had—lets try

To make it right now . . .

It wasn’t so long ago you held my hand

you made me understand that life sometimes

Has wicked ways

But when we make love

all our bad ways are forgotten

yes, when we make love—

all the bad things are forgotten

 ‘She’s my angel’

Well she’s my angel

and she’s full of
