My Sons

I left in clear dawn

when you were sleeping

curly hair

peeking out from the lair

of night blue quilts

fat cheeks

small noses

eyebrows that wink

and soft smooth lips

I kissed goodnight

in lamplight

I am a writer, painter, potter, and photographer. I was drawn to writing late in life due to my professional life as a speech-language pathologist (SLP). This led me to an interest in language, social communication, and writing. I believe creativity heals ourselves and our society, and is a way to find an ethical, sustainable future.
