                                   started early on it did,
                                   aged three, between
                                   jagged edge of news
                                   and print
                                   to finger then the word
                                   lengthwise
                                   which sparked the mind
                                   like flint

                                   to dream a dream of
                                   “may come true”
                                   thinking “soon” it
                                   might ensue
                                   wondering if an ever
                                   should be
                                   would someone capture
                                   my poetry

                                   chance and ways
                                   weighted fate
                                   a need for
                                   answers to find
                                   looking far to
                                   somehow sate
                                   desires of a
                                   wandering mind

                                   a passion to find
                                   passionate poems
                                   of life, and truth
                                   and will
                                   somehow chance and
                                   ways weighted fate
                                   for Passions keeps me,

Hi Kari, I so agree with this poem, and it is so wonderful to have the book, and our names in it! Though I am underimpressed with my old and unimproved poetry, still, its something, to finally see your name in a book, with writing under it. Wow!
Have a happy day

Enjoyed this,
as I have many others of yours,
especially like the use of line breaks.
