Background
Information
|
|
I started writing poetry as therapy for my soul while i was caring for my mother, who had alzheimers. After she died the poetry stayed with me. It gave me an outlet for the tregedies I experienced with the death of my whole family. Now it has grown into its own entity, it controls when i will write and what i will write, but i love every minute of it. My style is my own and the material i come up with are traces of my growing up as a military brat traveling all over the us and europe, and the joys I now have in my life with the man I have always loved.
Growing up I was always looking in from the outside watching people and grasping life at its fullest. I saw the good, the bad, and the ugly. My words reflect what i have seen what I have experienced and what I feel. It deals with the many events my life takes on and applies to everyone. I write from my heart and soul and i write all kinds of poetry to captivate the attention of my audience, and that also includes some poetry of the dark side. That is who i am.

I have published two books, one being the poems i wrote on alzheimers as i cared for my mother called "If There are Dragons There is Alzheimers. My second book, "Through the Maze of Life", contains a number of different types of poetry and there are still some on alzheimers, it hasnt left my memories. I am currently editing my third book of poetry that is trying to decide if it wants to be called "Whispers in the Wind" or not.
