My Seasons

By Etta Barnes

Poetry, Family, and the changing of

My Seasons


My retirement has been an incredible challenge of every emotion known to humans. We moved from California to Mississippi, exchanging the city for the country. This continuing evolution has enabled me to reintroduce myself to the changing dynamics of family and friends. Re-hatching old, young, and new acquaintances at a slower pace.

Come together with me in My Seasons, as we navigate this slower pace, unearthing hidden insights. Of course, there is always a chance to trip, fall, and experience bruises. That's where heaven comes along. Some memories are sacred. Others are there to share transparency.

My Seasons is a collection of poetry, songs, and the preservation of my walk back home. It’s blessed to know, that our Father in heaven is always seeking to greet us wherever we may roam.
