My Life Is My Masterpiece ~ Lessons Learned
My theme ~ Lessons Learned. I’ll be posting a word that begins with each letter of the alphabet that fits my theme. This blog/website has become one way to share about myself to my children, my grandchildren and my extended family who are scattered all over the country and the world. Hopefully, anyone who reads this will be in some way blessed by my throwing my words out onto the World Wide Web and into the Universe.
My About Page gives me the focus so that, as I age, I don’t forget what I worked so hard to learn. It’s going to be fun and challenging! I hope you’ll stick with me as I strive to meet my goal!!

Me in the Middle of Standing on My Own ~ A Few Poems I Wrote
(Click on Link Above)
Whenever I attempted to write poetry, it was usually at a more challenging time in my life. When I was sorting through life’s paradoxes and finding my way through the complexities and seeking answers. When I wasn’t able to find the words to express what was going on inside, writing poetry helped to define that struggle.

Writing has been a path to my middle ground. It’s there at the center of my thoughts that I’m able to find that thread of continuity of my own self. It surprises me when, after procrastinating on getting started, I find a joy and freedom that begins to awaken and I wonder why I waited to begin. It’s an awakening that points to the whole ‘me’.
