In about a month or so a new book about grandmothers will be published. A tentative title is “Grandmothers Who Stand Watch” and is edited by Robin McGee.
I am lucky enough to have my story about my Nana published in this wonderful book.
I will update you on more info when the book is available.
Up until today no power outages in Wilton. Yeah….
Very chilly temperatures but not more than 8 inches of snow. Some more to follow so they say but Wilton lucked out. No blizzard. We were very lucky….
We’re preparing for either a small storm or a major one which should hit Connecticut tonight.
The storm should be heavier in Maryland and Virginia. Hopefully there won’t be a lot of ice damage or that we won’t lose power. The generator is ready and so are the shovels.
Keep your fingers crossed for us in the Northeast.
Last year we went on a family cruise. Fun, fun, fun!
Lots of activities for children and adults. This adorable monkey was made by the cleaning staff and ‘he’ watched over us as a protector.
If anyone is interested in purchasing my poetry book “Full Circle” I’ve included a sample poem below. It is for sale on Amazon.com and from this website. If you write me here and include your email we can connect.
Dark Days
She gazes
through the hazed window
at an overcast sky
hiding a dull gray lake.
Mountains and trees, enshrouded in fog,
invisible behind endless rain.
Trenches open in spring grass
causing rivulets of pain
She waits patiently at the window
reflecting on former days hidden
from sunshine –
dark days like today.
It took me a long time to make the transition to Facebook but I’ve finally done it. I’m now part of the social media.
I’m gathering old friends and hopefully making some new ones. It’s a great way to reach out to people. I also have an author’s page where people can go to see my recent work.
I’ve met some other poets and writers and it’s fun to read their posts and see some of there work.
See you there…..
Snow will soon be arriving in Connecticut since it has already started in New York. Temperature is 18 degrees and chilly.
Time to get out the camera hopefully for winter photos and new winter poems.
Today we saw 5 large deer in our backyard before the snowfall came.
Although we got only an inch or snow it was nice to see the trees decked out in white.
