Cameo

                   Cardinal
            A slash of scarlet
On a backdrop of grey and white
              "Pretty bird"
    You boldly call, then flit away
     To grace some other dull spot.
                Vain bird.

About Me

Wife for 35 years (married 8.30.1977) to a wonderful man. I am blessed to have him love me.

Bragging rights:

Three beautiful, smart kids who I love with all my heart. But they live so far away! One in Washington state, one in Alabama and one in Ohio (the closest but still four hours up the road). I really, really wish someone would invent the "beam me up Scotty" device so I could visit whenever I want - though my kids might have some thoughts on that : )

What I Do:

After stifling my desire to write for many years, I finally took a deep breath and plunged into the deep end of the pool. Sink or swim is my motto, so far I'm treading water and staying afloat. With the encouragement and mentoring of a friend, Sal Buttaci, I am writing poetry once again, and better, though by no means what I hope it to be one day.
