Writing and the mind's search for love .... My Father told me creativity is a part of someone that should always be shared. I try to do that. I am a poet and writer (not my salary job ), love to paint with acryllics and other mediums, and play the Native American Flute. My songs come from inside, not the modern commercial music. In my younger years I volunteered to bring music and art to deaf and blind children .... you would be amazed how a non seeing child associates color with touch and feel. And, the deaf children danced better than I did.

Writing has always been my passion. It is my therapy, my encouragement, my mind's escape, my romantic composition, passions whirlwind, my heart's diary. By now, I probably have over 250 poems, maybe more. Some are here and there on the net, some published on various sites and three selections in the Poetry International publication in India (what an honor for me to be published with some of the great poets of India).

It isn't the notariety I seek with my writing. It is the opportunity to express feelings and thoughts for those who just can't seem to put them on paper or speak them.

Being creative can be through so many mediums. If you are creative, you will understand why I am here on the site. It is a part of you that needs to be shared with the one you love .... their love is your inspiration as well .... they become your muse in many ways.

Perhaps you are here??
