About Me

I have been writing all my life and love to express myself through poetry. I would like to begin writing more regularly and more seriously as I have many experiences to share which just might help others along the way.

I am a Midwestern girl, born and bred, in the heart of Illinois, but have lived in California and now live in Northeastern Colorado. I have a BA in History and an MSW in School Social Work. I also play a little piano, guitar and have played the bass guitar since elementary school. With four children ranging in age from ten to 17, I am usually kept busy taking care of all of their needs. I am also a part time gymnastics coach for one of our local high schools.

Hopefully my writing will be able to touch someone and leave an impression. Thank you for reading!

I love this poem. I can almost hear the drums beating rhythmically in the background as I read it. It leaves history with a reader while sharing a culture.

I was born part of this earth.
My Grandmother Earth.
I was born part of this earth.
My Mother, all living beings.
I was born part of this earth.
My Grandfather, the sky.
I was born part of this earth.
My Father, all creatures of the earth.
The eight Grandfathers.
I was born part of this earth.
The four corners of the earth.
I was born part of this earth.
The great wind giant of the North.
I was born part of this earth.
The red road of the dead.
I was born part of this earth.
The blue and black road of destruction.
I was born part of this earth.
The old ones say
The old way’s gone,
The old ones say.
Still,
I was born part of this earth.
