I believe in magic - - as in miracles and divine intervention and this gift of poetry that God has given me. I believe in the power of prayer. I believe there are more things unseen than seen and more will be revealed as I take this journey through life. I believe the joy is in the journey, not in the destination.
I have a passion for developing my spirituality and strengthening my connection with the God of my understanding - - and giving back what was so freely given to me. . . . . I'm also EXTREMELY passionate about

writing poetry & prose, family & friends, music,
... road trips with the girls ... business development, entrepreneurship, did I say music (?), conversation, swimming, dancing, cooking,

watching someone who's tired get energized after I've given her a facial and makeover. I like to eat out, design web sites, run a boston in a hot game of bid whist, and meet new peeps.

Tyler Perry - any man who would build a house with not one, but 2 prayer grottos, got my vote //
// George Wiley - who fought for the poorest of the poor - the "undeserving" poor - when no one else would //
// Oprah, because she allows God to use her //
// Russell Simmons, because he's created a national stage for Spoken Word //<
// all the folks who say "NO!" when it's uncomfortable to do so and to those who say "YES!" when it is uncomfortable to do so //
//But most of all, my heros are my two children ......... because they've grown into wonderful adults, often times, in spite of me.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?" --Nelson Mandela

I WRITE BECAUSE ....
I write to share my pain and sorrows, because a sorrow shared is a sorrow lessened.
I write to quiet the committee in my head, so that the healing can begin to mend.
I write to share the joy I've found, since finding the God of my understanding,
Who loves me unconditionally, without being judgmental or demanding.
I write to offer faith and hope, that no matter what, one can find peace of mind,
If you’re willing to give your worries to God, and leave your fears behind.
I write to say that dreams do come true, only it’s in God’s time, not in mine.
And since I tend to mess up when I take control, waiting for God’s time is just fine.
And last, but not least, I write to give thanks, for my children’s encouragement,
Because without it I would not have, this body of work, with which to present,
My thoughts and feelings, my fears and hopes, and even my craziest dream,
‘Cause long as I stay true to the path, no dream is too extreme.
**********************************************
A POET's PREROGATIVE ....... The other day we were listening to a song, my babygirl and I.
It was about how he had done her wrong, how he had made her cry.
My daughter says it must be tough, to be involved with a musician,
Cause if you mess up, your business’ll be, the very next rendition.
And so I guess the same holds true if you mess around and mess over a poet.
‘Cause we consider it a life experience and let the whole world know it.
So you better be good to me baby, or you’ll be the subject of an unflattering poem.
Ya may want to think about it, contemplate it, deliberate it, if you ever decide to roam.
**********************************************
I WAS TOLD That the reason Tinkerbell is my favorite animated character is because I have a weakness for males who don't wanna grow up .... go figure.

The light area indicating more sunlight is called Yang (Sun). The dark color area has less sunlight (more moonlight) and is called Yin (Moon). Yang is like man. Yin is like woman. Yang wouldn't grow without Yin. Yin couldn't give birth without Yang.
Who I'd like to meet:
Aretha, Poetri, Mos Def, Russell Simmons, Tyler Perry, Oprah, and anyone who has a passion for creative expression and a spiritual connection with a Higher Power
....... and meeting a literary agent who likes my work would also be nice
