~i am proud of my granddaughters Willow and Autumn
~i love watching fireflies illuminate the summer night
~i savor roasted marshmallows
~i still get excited whenever i see a shooting star
~the ocean gives me peace
~my friends are my family
~my significant other is the best friend i have
~a walk through the woods, listening, seeing, feeling is mind mending
~poetry is like music - full of feeling and experience ~Peace, Hope, Love, Diversity, and Understanding guide me
