Over fifty years in the making, a collection which is nostalgic, emotional, humorous, and intuitive. This rendering for the literary genre called poetry contains glimpses of what and whom this author has experienced throughout her lifetime. Starting with her epitaph, written when she was sixteen, up to “Listening,” it is a journey of happiness and sadness, success and failure, and a growing and blooming of her ability to use words to project a picture or snapshot of time in her life. The amazing thing is that these poems were relevant in 1970 America, and continue to be so today. As the saying goes, “The more things change, the more they remain the same.” The rhythm and meter in each piece matches those poems she most enjoyed as a child, and has thus strived to produce for the world. The author would like to encourage all who have a desire to write to do so, both for themselves and for others. Words are powerful in pulling emotion from oneself and those near. It is her wish that these words will bring joy and enduring emotions from those who read them.
