I am a single father, I am a son and I am a brother but to all I am a friend. My life revolves around all that I love and all that I love means I will keep on breathing and trying. I am mid 40's with a long and fruitful life ahead dreaming of calm and serenity in all I do. I am not "that" outgoing but enjoy time away with family and friends. Life now has become a place where I can watch the fruits of our labor ripen. "As we age and as we live life becomes less of a riddle and more of a poem"
I was born in Alabama. Lived the first 9 years of my life in Florida, but then moved back to Alabama after my grandmother passed away to live in her house. I've been here ever since and I absolutely love it. I am married to a wonderful man who is my best friend. I'm surrounded by my family and friends and beautiful nature. I am a follower of Christ. I've always loved to write. When I was little, I would write my parents little notes and slide them underneath the door of whatever room they were in. I just loved to touch people through my words. Verbally and on paper. When I became a teenager, I started to write random poetry for fun, but also for school. I realized that it wasn't homework for me to write, it was a joy. My poetry streak really took off at the age of 15. Now, having recently turned 30, I have been through a lot in the past decade and have not written as much as i used to. Ups and downs, highs and lows, defeats and victories...you name it. I've felt a lot of different emotions and thought many thoughts. And I've composed quite a few poems and written many songs through it all. So, this is my place to share them with the world, to touch others through my words. I hope they mean something to you. Thank you.
I'm a single mom to a wonderful 12 year old girl, Taryn, whom I love with all my heart. She is kind, brave, thoughtful and sincere. I express my feelings through poems...kind of like venting.. A lot of my poems are about someone that was a big part of mu life who has past or about things in my life that bothered me...
