I want to extend a warm welcome to this poem home.
Enjoy your visit and I hope this will be a source of inspiration and encouragement.
Some of my roles include that of mother, grandmother and kindergarten educator (ret.).
Having composed songs for young children throughout my 27 years in the classroom,
I moved more into poetry following that period.
Please feel welcome to share these offerings with others as well.

Safe Passage

You and I are on a covered bridge..
one filled with warmth and light,
Aglow with faith and love all clothed
in soft-lit rainbow bright.

Within this cozy covered place,
this spacious, open way,
we are passageways for others
who seek a bright, new day.
