My heart is a snow globe full of glittering sparkles pulsing fountains as I read my words to you... May my poetry feel listening to... worth your attention's time and gently touch you with some delight LGR(C)10/31//10 (had the opportunity to read at an open mike at a local book store/coffe shop and have been asked to read at my parent's Retirement Center and another Nursing Home in a small town close by. This Poem was written in anticipation of reading in front of my parent's group) |

Completely and satisfyingly well done, Lori. The people at the book store/coffee shop, the Retirement Center and the other Nursing Home are in for a treat. Plus, it helps our ego when someone smiles, or even cries at our written words. Please let us know how it all turns out. I'm very happy for you. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I'm sure it will go well (not bragging) first time in my life to really have a sense of confidence in myself. It gives me an opportunity to share a diversity of my work to fit who I'm reading to. The real feather in my cap is when the Nursing Home was inquiring about me, they wanted to know how much I would charge to do it! Little did they know I'd have paid them! lori  |

Im sure they loved your poetry. I lived in Hawaii for while and belonged to the newcomers group. We use to hula dance for a nursing home and they loved it and I enjoyed it too. ~Victoria~
