A Bio of Me Today

Andrea Teacher/communicator, wordsmith, night owl, and loyal friend Daughter of Roger and Jean Lover of her family, her independence, and simple pleasures Who feels joy in life's sunlight, stress from things now stealing it away, and a sense of foreboding that brings her sleepless nights Who fears the waning of her sun, loss of normalcy, and new struggles coming to the world. Who would like to see global harmony, opportunities for everyone to live a decent life, and old boyfriends the way they are today! Resident of "Happy Valley," Utah Dietrich Written 9/23/2012 and now entered into the Portrait of a Poet Contest of Gautami Phookan

Yes! Communication is, for me, so important, especially as it not only applies to poetry, but applies to the other areas as well. How lucky Happy Valley is to have Andrea. Love, daver
