About me:
I'm an artist in every sense of the word, but my channel over the last few years has been writing. My passions include ~ Abba in heaven, His incarnate Son, my husband and best friend, music of all kinds, books, people (even mean ones), dance, travel, fishing, city, nature, and my dog Rocco. I find all people fascinating -- every person a unique and glorious creation of our Divine Designer. Lately my thing has been poetry, but I've published some random freelance articles and reviews also.

Who I'd like to meet:
Righteous people, deep thinkers, artists of no specific genre, everyone and anyone...I'll find poetic beauty in you some way, I promise.
