Eve Roper

I'm Eve Led by God My faith in God has always guided me in my life. I find refuge in, poems I write, books I read, composing descriptive paintings, wrap myself around my computer, a desire to acquire more knowledge, It's everything I need. I am a coward of the booming thunder. My Heart is as warm as the summer sun, My husband insists I am too honest and too forgiving. I embrace the flow of life with love, dance, and listen to many genres of music. I love to save family mementos of the past that brings back memories. I married my soul mate a retired Navy Chief thirty-five years ago. I have three wonderful sons accomplished in their own field, two daughters’ in-laws that should have been my own, five grandchildren I deeply adore. My Yorkie Peanut, is a very clingy, stubborn, a little handful. I am a Christian Catholic, taught fifth and sixth grade prep. I also taught in the public schools with special needs children from kindergarten to twelfth grade with stern rules, but compassionate to all for fifteen years. My husband and I are retired and up there in age. Friends are very special and also my family. I love to walk hand in hand with my husband through the wood of the tall pine, look at the pond that lies beyond, and listen to nature. I'm tired of getting old and tired of being tired, but I would do it all over again. I firmly believe I have to see it before I believe, you learn right from wrong with experience. ©Eve Roper 4/7/2015 revise

So nice to read some personal notes about your life, Eve. My husband and I are both retired teachers, so I can relate to you there although mine was regular public school. K-6. I love walking too but I must walk alone for he is not into hiking. Our dachshund, Simon is growing old and has an occasional accident; he's a barker when hubby is not around. So glad to know I share a few details with a fellow poet at PS. Congratulations on your top placement in the contest.

Thank you, Reason, I use to have a little 5 lb. Yorkie.He was with us for 15 years so I understand, when they get old there is not much you can do except keep them happ. I use to grind his dog food in a coffee grinder so he could eat because he had lost all his teeth and had gone blind. Broke my heart when I lost him. Blessings and hugs dear friend eve

I'm really enjoying all these bio poems as of late - get to know more of the person behind the screen. Your opening line was very humorous - and while reading this it'd almost be funny to say "My name is Eve, and no my husband isn't Adam"... ha ha ha. Sorry for the silly! Good read :)
