This book contains poems for all occasions and seasons of life. Each one is inspired by God, family and friends. I hope everyone who reads this book is filled with encouragement, hope and love. I was born in North Platte, Nebraska and moved to Denver, Colorado in 1961. I was married for 53 years to a wonderful man, Gus I have been a widow for 10 years. I have 3 children, 6 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren. I have been writing poetry for over 30 years. My family encouraged me to put my poems into a book. I make cards for various occasions and put a poem that I have written into each card that I send to people. I thank God for giving me the ability to write poetry and share with others. I hope people that read my book will be encouraged.
