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!

Spring
The spring has come and with
it brings,
A host of sweet and beautiful things:
A garden rare, as you can see
Planted by Mom and Pop and Me
Out shoots the green sprouts shy
and small
Gradually they begin to grow tall,
But of all the flowers and trees
         and things
I like best of all, the love Spring
brings.


Circa 1942
