I am a wife and mother of 2 children. I like reading.My favorite authors include Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Clive Cussler, and Anne Rice's Vampire and Witch books. I like to write acrostic poems. I am not a voracious writer, something has to really inspire me to get the ol' poetry juices flowing. I'd like to hope that my quality of poem makes up for the small quantity. So if you want a short poem that may touch a chord in your heart or soul, take a few minutes and read one or two.

J Rhys Davies on February 22, 2005No worries, no need to apologize. I had a member one time thank me for a greeting that I had done months and months before. That really cracked me up. We’re just glad to see you coming back. Keep penning!
