I have immersed myself in you over 2,000 times. Each time I press play, new life stirs within. Am I lost? How do I find myself? You tell me to remember who I am. To fight the demon of inferiority. To reclaim my throne. I Am Queen, lost no more.

Poet by birth. Writer by craft. Artist by nature. I write poems, prose, short stories, fiction, and realism works of art dissecting the human condition and the resilience of the human mind. Many of my pieces are metaphoric stanzas.
When We Were Very Young
In another box set that my parents got me when I was younger contained four books by A.A. Milne. 'When We Were Very Young' is a collection of poems that Milne wrote for his son Christopher Robin. This is a book that is full of references to Mr. Edward Bear, but a lot of the poems give some various descriptions of life of a very young child and where, when, how and why they do what they do. The illustrations are quite cute for you can see what Christopher Robin is and may be thinking. Also, Pooh Bear does make his self-known at various points. I have read these verses many, many times over the years and each time make me feel good about myself.

The Diary of Clotee, A Slave Girl
Just finished reading a youth book that is entitled 'Dear America A Picture of Freedom- The Diary of Clotee, A Slave Girl. This is the story of a slave girl who learned to read and write while doing her job as a fanner (someone who had a big fan and waved over a person to keep that person cool) living at the Belmont Plantation in the state of Virginia 1859. Clotee had her Aunt Tee and Uncle Heb and a few friends that helped pass the days till freedom came while doing all the Big House chores and just being safe right before the War Between the States. At the end of the book there is a recipe for Sweet Potato Pie, a song 'Go Down Moses' and a few other notes.
