an unfortunate ebb in gratitude
creates a shoulder pad attitude
a flowing of virtuous thoughts
must not be all for naught
let’s bridle a well-inked feather
share the will to come together

A gander at me –
I enjoyed a dedicated career in the insurance industry for over 20 years being rewarded both professionally and personally. Now it’s time for me to follow my dreams by doing things I enjoy…spending time with family, learning, sharing, traveling, writing poetry and encouraging others to pursue their goals.
