snowflakes intertwined
quiet hush assaults the air
seasonal silence
listen, do you hear
the softness of wintertide
seasonal pleasures
silence is broken
laughter and mirth fill the air
seasonal treasures
listen do you hear
families gather together
unforgettable

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.
In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer. – Albert Camus
