I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager. My ability to write is a God given talent. My poetry was inspired by perhaps by a serene scene in a park, or something as simple as a picture on a greeting card, and at times, just my imagination. I married young, had three beautiful chrildren, who gave me seven precious Grandchildren,and three just as wonderful Great Grandchildren. I have been blessed. In my collection of poetry, by collection I mean these are my favorite ones.You will always read a story in my poems,and will find rather humorous subjects which could be read to a child. and then you will find purely nostalgic poems that relate to the era I lived in. You will also find some rather deep ones, and some religious poems. I think and hope you will be delighted with this book so I would suggest you find a favorite place to be, grab a cappachino and enjoy! DeEtta Turner
