A Life of Poetry

Who is Gretchen ? She came in on a sunbeam and left on a storm cloud. She was a beautiful young woman, full of life and enthusiasm. She did not have a past or future, just now. I doubt she ever really existed? But she will always be present in poetry and in these pages, so come closer dear reader and listen as her life unfolds. About the book: I have a vivid imagination and the poetry on the following pages comes from a life of observation and a requirement to write it all down. I'm not gonna nice it up or change it, just gonna write it as I viewed it and as I lived it. I hope you, dear reader enjoy my poetry as well. Oftentimes, while reading these little verses of mine, I chuckled and found a great deal of enjoyment in the escapades of the human race. My favorite being the last, a short story: "Mick of the Jungle", I will always wonder if she found what she was searching for? Guess I will never know.
