LIfe...I got a frog?

Do we gain wisdom or humor when you hit midlife? PoeMarie isn't sure, but in case we do happen to gain wisdom and humor, here are the first of her contributions to the record of what it is to live today. It is filled with poetry that helps to answer what people gain from life as it...
inspires, reframes reality, tickles memories,
and helps you step outside yourself on relationships, goals, the world, nature, and the future using words that vibrate with humor, serious reflections, and vivid imagery.

"All the world's a stage,
and I'm a simple actress who forgot her lines," she says.

Make no mistake, this is a book for the faint of heart, for those who feint being faint of heart, and those who are bold and want to be bold rather than faint hearted.

"Rumored vaccinated with a phonograph needle at birth,
I celebrate myself-my mind,
my heart, my soul, my self-in words."

If you want to taste, touch, see, feel, and hear life as you walk in someone else's shoes, you'll enjoy glimpsing PoeMarie's life as you read the poems contained here. But, don't worry, she celebrates not just her life, but every woman's life in the poetic images held within these pages.

"What we had not reached in marriage-to sail skyward-
we reached at its end.

Anchored hearts, become dried dust lifted by the breeze,
we finally soared."
