I have been writing poetry for about four years. I have raised five children and have had many happy times. I work as a certified nurses aide for sixteen years. Now I am going to college to be a medical assistance. It helps me to focus on many happy times among many people.


It's A Shower

It's a shower, here comes the flowers
Oh, no it's a baby shower
Look at all the gifts
It's quite a list
A gift for a boy
A gift for a girl
Oh, look it's a toy
For a girl or boy
I hear a whisper
It was my sister
I hear another
It was my brother
Oh, no it's my mother
Here comes the biggest gift of all
He is very tall
It's my father after all
Now it's time to rest
It was the best

Through The Looking Glass

Through the looking glass
You could see your mask
Dreams will come true
With only a clue
Wandering aimlessly alone
To find my way home
Winds swept under my feet
My hands began to meet
I closed my eyes
Remembering my ties
Trying to make a dash
Through the looking glass

Butterfly, Butterfly

Hoping to catch your eye
Circling around you, oh my
Butterfly, butterfly, come into the light
Oh, what a beautiful sight
Flying so gracefully
Into the sky, the butterfly
Trying to catch a butterfly
Fly, fly, fly, butterfly
There he sets upon the mums
I'm having so much fun
Here's another on the sill
Your standing so still
You go to touch him
There he goes, the butterfly
I hear a tapping on the window
It's the butterfly, fly, fly, fly
There he goes into the sky
Flying so high, the butterfly
I'll see you another day
Butterfly, butterfly, away
