Several Thoughts: Life is just to short

I am finally working on my book of Love Expressions poems. I had put it off for different reasons, one being that I thought I could not do it.

In 2005 I was on the brink of not knowing what was going to happen to me. I felt like everything was caving in. My children live in Chicago and I wanted them to all way be proud of me and I was not doing well. God sent me four angels. Betty, Donna, Rick and Kirk. I went from despair to being very blessed and grateful. You never know where your blessings will come, they are my extended family.

Married at 19 years of age and divorced after 13 years, it took me few years! okay a lot of years to actually find myself, I guess that's what you call it! I am now 62 years young, I want to go to the spa and get a facial and massage and enjoy the pleasure of it all. I went to the ocean for the first time last year, it was awesome. I have never been camping, I still want to fall in love with that special someone. Little things make me happy and make me smile and thank God if I do meet that special someone and fall in love, I have learned enough over the years to be in love for the rest of my life. I am still growing up!

I love to sing blues and jazz, I started singing when I was 50 years old. I know a little late huh!
I go to weekly blues and jazz jams and have been in three bands. I want to build a studio and have jams all the time.

I want my children to move to Washington State, it would be less stressful for them, I could see them all the time and help raise my grandchildren.

My son lost his wife (Tasha) in 2005, I lost my Mother and my oldest brother in 2006.. They passed away on the same day a month apart. It seems as if family and friends are disappearing and I can't make since of it all. So remember to live life to the fullest and everyday do something you have not done. Never really grow up!
Don't spend all your time trying not to die, you may forget to live. I will be posting poems and just random thoughts and hope I can touch some lives. I am not a very strong writer but I love doing it and welcome all your comments.
God Bless
