The inspiration for writing poetry came years ago when I was in high school but I never seriously did anything about it until I started working in the school system. Just watching the children sometimes gave me ideas and brought a poem to mind. I guess being the mother of three, I never took the time to write anything down until I had an empty nest.

The inspiration for writing poetry came years ago when I was in high school but I never seriously did anything about it until I started working in the school system. Just watching the children sometimes gave me ideas and brought a poem to mind. I guess being the mother of three, I never took the time to write anything down until I had an empty nest. Even then, I didn't get serious about writing a book until I started working at Sand Creek Elementary School five years ago. While helping third and fourth graders write simple poems. I became obsessed in writing myself. I would sometimes stay up late and write four or five poems in an evening. Some good and some not so good. One of the first poems I wrote was called Children Lost. I was inspired to write it after seeing so many children who seem to need attention they didn't get at home. Just a few kind words or praise from a teacher or an assistant was like giving them a new toy. To see their smiles when you complemented them on something done well just stole my heart. Life events would come to mind like the time my best friend and I went fishing and she was so eager to catch the big one that in her excitement to reel it in she fell and sat on it. That was the inspiration for Fishing with My Friend. Just thinking about my grandchildren would sometimes trigger a new poem. With nine grandchildren ranging in age from four to seventeen you never know what they will say or do. Whatever the reason, here are the results.
