Erma Bombeck was a Goddess! Aside from natural humor (as opposed to forced), I am very fond of Acrostic Poetry. One of my favorite things to attempt is Acrostic and Poetic definitions. If you haven't a clue what I'm trying to say, read some of my attempts.   Latest News: I'm turning some of my poetry into songs, and others into recited works.  Give them a listen and let me know what you think. http://www.authorsden.com/adstorage/68651/SOLDIER.mp3 http://www.authorsden.com/adstorage/68651/soliloquy.mp3

I've been raising children all of my life so I haven't accomplished anything other than gray hair, wrinkles, and wide hips.

OK. So that isn't exactly true. When I was younger (MUCH YOUNGER) I had three of my poems published in a vanity anthology. The first was published in 1975 I think. I've slept since then. The second two were published the following year.

Since having those three poems published I've continued to write but haven't shared much of it.

Now is the time.
