This is a poem about my wife. Our golden wedding is in late August. The chemical symbol for gold is Au. But you knew that. We've lived in Tarrytown, Austin, TX since late 1961, and Austin since August, 1960. Dixon
There once be a...well, there still be, Thank goodness
a lady whose first name is Billy.
Not Billie, she’s Billy after her father,
Clifford Lewis
With the unlikely nickname of Bill
Or Billy.
Oh really, don’t bother
Or make a big fuss
Just get on the bus
And come to see us
So’s to save me the trouble
Of trying to bottle
Her qualities golden
Before August.
Now August is the golden month
For Gail and me to Tarry,
And gold for every one of us,
From "August's" first two letters.
My memories as an immigrant professional woman in Ottawa, Canada 47 years ago. A new life after having survived the liberal war of a new country Bangladesh on December 16, 1971.
This book is a collection of short stories that depict events in Author's life while she lived in Romania, then in Greece, and last in America. It's a beautiful and very sincere account of a young woman's life and comming to age.
Be always safe,
