I am a mother of 4 grown up children and nanny of 2 grandsons. I recently remarried after a marriage breakup 16 years ago. I love writing poetry and had my first poem published in 2007 by Poetry.com. The poem was entitled "The Loves of My Life" and described my love for my children all of whom are very different but all loved so much. Since then, I have written many more poems and write them for every occasion in my life including my mother's funeral, my daughter's wedding, and my own wedding. I write about anything including trains, cars, football, my country and so much more.

And lend an arm to lean on
When my bones are getting...
