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!

Bee My Sonnet 11/23/2015
A poem is said to be a sonnet
When fourteen lines are writ upon it.
Filling paper with mere words and phrases
Compels a reader to quick turn pages.
Writing my sonnet with meter and rhyme,
A craft it 'tis embedded in time.
Nothing enticing is scribbled on here,
Just pithy words to make lines appear.
Fourteen phrases must comprise a sonnet;
A line abuzz - a bee in bonnet
Swiftly flitting about to end this rhyme.
Are you not glad 'tis finally time?
Ah writer-beware! Two more required lines-
Now THIS describes my ending quite fine!
