"How sweet to the heart are the scenes of my childhood" Samuel Woodworth, 1785-1842 I did enjoy my many childhood dreams, and later, happily, some did come true. When I look back in time, indeed it seems the future turned out well- I did pursue my artwork, writing poems- steady flings- which, as a child, somehow I always knew. Crayons and paper were such favored things, and when I'd reached the age of three or four, I loved to draw and spread artistic wings. Next, taking pen to paper was no chore; as I grew older, by age eight or nine- was writing poetry to make words soar! My childhood dreams did grow to shape, refine; honed gifts of art and words, did intertwine.
