Good morning, everyone!!

First and foremost, thank you to everyone who has helped make this blog successful.  I can’t imagine what it would be like without the many friendships I have made (and more to come) these past four years.  I never dreamed it would be this cool   🙂

When I started this blog, I was actually reporting on current events, until I decided it was time to release some of my poetry.  Scared doesn’t even begin to describe how I felt.  But the WordPress community welcomed me with open arms.  It is truly an amazing feeling!  Because of your support, I was able to publish nine poetry books, with number 10 coming shortly.  I couldn’t have done it without you.

So, here’s to you, my friends, and to many years ahead.  Once again, I thank you, from the bottom of my heart   ❤

Speak to me
in muted tones
Words,
like fragrant flowers
bloom
Whisper
to my soaring heart
Intimate thoughts
take over,
consume
For you,
my love,
my one,
my only
Can save me
from my darkened soul
You alone,
can calm the fears
You alone,
can make me whole

Past Her Prime ~ #poetry

They were right on the tip of her tongue

Things she needed to say to him

Perhaps she left them, where they were young

Back in the days when life was a whim

She’s different now, not so perfect

She wonders how it might have been

If he had looked beyond the face

To find the beauty that lied within

The years have passed, and she’s grown old

He’s been gone now, quite some time

How sad the bitter memories remain

Of a girl, now past her prime
