Moved my parents to be near me, in ¿2014? To be with at least one child, some grandkids, great grand’s & to be watched over until death did us part.

It was strangely stressful, as I was prone to “please”

Poetry got me through the thick of things

I’ve been slipping mentally- self assessed- and the poetry gives me a bit of a mental challenge.
My favorite poet, Edgar Albert Guest, aka Americas Poet is my favorite. He wrote with a Dr Seuss rhythm and a Normand Rockwell value system. He has a sweet, naive perspective. With each poem, I try to imagine what he had to tell us, and I often wonder what inspired him, good & bad. Then my effort is to share that sentiment with the listener.

Many of his poems have stirred such great emotion in me, that I had to work through my personal feelings.

I Am ESL, dyslexic, ADHD & swear I didn’t learn to read or write well until after high school. Reading poetry is a Personal challenge
