Who I am

I'm not just a vessel
containing ovaries,
breasts and a womb.

There's more to me than
housework, raising
children and preparing
meals.

Being a friend . . . a
beautiful soul, mother
and wife sums up the
fact . . . I am a woman.

If you keep the twinkle
in your eyes . . . when you
whisper I will hear you
in the night.

Love me or leave me,
I'm on a journey. Hold
on tight.



Never give up is my motto.

I thought for a moment and then wrote this. No, I didn't realize it was in six sentences at the time.

I ran our office for many years. If I needed to chastise someone it was done without other eyes… Continue

Twila

Twila was born in the mountains of Virginia under a full moon “That’s when all the lunatics came out,” her grandmother said.

Maybe that’s why Twila set out to do things no one else could do.

Like the time she decided to roller skate to the White House and ask the President to stop all war; she made it five miles and then the sidewalk ran out . . . so she thought she’d go home and watch The Cosby show, instead.
