Excerpt from: "Pen Women Magazine"
LIFE LESSON LEARNED
I was the child who sat alone Immersed within my books
The dreamy one, folks 'round me said
Who reads but never looks
No fam'ly can hold her childish dreams
Or change her foolish ways
And yet I learned to think and write
And love and grow and amaze.
I was the teen who sat alone Immersed within my books
The dreamy one, folks 'round me said
Who writes but never looks
No fam'ly can hold her teen-age dreams
Or support her foolish ways
And yet I learned to think and write
And love and grow and amaze.
