and my mom and dad always made us use our imagination it will be enough.
We made our own toys at times and had the greatest fun,
we didn't need store bought toys or ever a toy gun.
My poetry always tells of a time,
when love was throughout the neighborhood of mine.
where neighbors had a free hand should we not mind,
and our mothers and father would follow up on our behinds.
Stories of love of my grandma and grandpa,
where they often were so much a part of us all.
Taught us respect and wouldn't take less,
a time where faith and love we were so blessed.
Now their are stories I write of others indeed,
of how I have always been able to see those in need.
A teaching as I grew to share all I had,
and never ever to another be ugly or bad.
Yes growing up so many never feels this love I was shown ,
and I in return reached out to all in need and invited them home.
Our family loved to meet new friends and bring laughter their way,
and us kids made our own fun every day .
Now as you read my work you may need a tissue or two,
for when I write from my heart it will touch you.
To know of such love is my inheritance my treasures of today,
so wanting to share those treasures along the way .
Come on in and find love and the wonders of a child,
I write all types of poems all the while.
funny poems and children's poems and ones that says boo,
and I write every one with love of a life brand new.
So come on in I am here should you need to talk,
and together we can go on great adventures together we shall walk.
You tell me of your life and the times that came your way,
and in return I will help you make today a brighter day .
