Biography

I am a simple old lady who self-isolates all the time...not a fan of the world I live in...have 2 rescue cats who are my world. They wake me at 4:00 to eat, so I have lovely early a.m. time of peace to write. Have written poetry all my life. My work appears in thousands of places. I am an animal advocate a peace worker and many other hats.
