Thank you for taking the time to visit my site. I hope it is an enjoyable experience.

I am a wife, the mother of two lovely daughters, Caroline and Trisha, the grandmother of Nicole and Christian, with #3 due at the end of September! I earn my living as a legal secretary but poetry is my passion.

I started writing almost three years ago shortly after my father passed away.  I have read that sometimes our creativity is not unleashed until a personal tragedy strikes. Maybe so, I don't know. I've known tragedy in the past but was never inspired to write before. What I do know is that a fire burns within the depths of every poet. We are compelled to write, to share our expressions with others. We are very fortunate in this day and age to be able to share our words with an unlimited, global audience, something reserved for very few before the dawn of the internet. This site is just my way of sharing the words of my heart. I hope that you find some enjoyment, comfort, inspiration and perhaps even a chuckle or two within these pages. I'd love to hear your feedback.

If you come upon a poem that particularly touches you and you would like to use it for a special someone or for a special  occassion, feel free to do so. I only ask that you let me know and that you credit me as the author.

Enjoy your visit and stop back often!                                       Denise
