straining to listen
straining to see
bluebirds singing
sparrows chirping
the sun, orange marmalade
the sky, cerulean blue
the clouds, alabaster white
reasons for living
inhale
exhale
and enjoy

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.
