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!

My Thoughts
T'is dark dark outside and the snow falls swift,
While the vehicles ramble by
And I alone and sad here sit,
And watch the world go by.

I see the crowd go to and fro,
I hear the children shout,
While I alone sit here as though,
I wish I were without.

But yet to me this scene so near,
Bring's happiness and joy,
I sit and think of friends so dear,
That no one can destroy.

Dedicated To Pike Street
And All Her Residents.

Circa 1941-1942
