About This Author

Hi there!

I'm a grandmother, a nursing educator, an avid knitter and an aspiring writer. I created this page for family and friends who expressed interest in reading my writing. It is mostly poetry with a few short stories sprinkled here and there .

The poem on this page is one my Mom favored. The collectible trinket is from a needlework picture of Longfellow's home she completed. Mom loved poetry and was an avid reader. She and my brother,Rasputin , inspire me still.

I have a published form modification called the Rondel Grand Modified; it is located here:

Drop me a note by clicking on the "Contact Me" link above and let me know you stopped to visit.


Happy reading and write on!

I watch as in the darkening light
The day comes to a close.
But hear the falling of the night
When life’s song is transposed.
Bare branches rest against the sky
In stark lines growing thin,
As day turns once more to night,
Streaked dark blue sky grows dim.
All creatures caught in daylight’s fade
Create a raucous noisy din-
Oh no! Dark coldness now creeps in;
Life’s song is transposed-silence again.
