I will tell the world of my poetry,
here and there -
and will allow them to call myself a poet,
here and there.

There is not much you need to know about me and if you prefer, you can skip this part - I live in Cary, NC with my long-haired husband and our gregarious grey cat who orchestrates our lives. I am a project manager by day and a house decorator by night. In the slim chance I can rip myself away from work or the abyss of modern day distractions (I see you, video games) I enjoy modeling, watering my 87 house plants, trashy reality tv shows, short-lived art escapades, pretending to do my physical therapy exercises, and oh - writing poetry.

Poetry helps me process and helps me to feel alive - just as it does for many others. I keep my poetry here to hold myself accountable and to remind myself to be proud of who I’ve become and the moments I’ve lived through. As a secondary hope - it might inspire others, just as many poets have inspired myself.
