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!


Go Long!
Bringing the football to me, toddling on two-year old legs,
Rrunning the short length of the yard – when did my grandson age?
Asking me "throw 'nother", tucks the football under his arm as he runs
Down the yard (field) he toddles running, imaginary players chasing him-
You remembered what I taught you! I am proud to call you grandson!
