Poems »

I am a simple woman from humble beginings. I am neither brilliant nor wealthy. My death will be of no great consequence to the world. There will be no holiday to commemorate the day of my birth. I am only me... strong and stubborn, passionate and proud. I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a granddaughter, a sister, and a friend. This is my life, safe and unspectacular. I have loved and lost, and learned to love again. These pages reveal the truths of my being. They are entrusted with all the faith, love, hope, grief, fear, anger, compassion, courage, and curiousity that equate to the woman you see before you. There is no intentional pattern by which these works are organized. They are as disordered as the mind who created them. Handle them gently, for they are my legacy.
