one, two, and three swings higher, higher reach the sky blossoms worn away Teenage dreams of love and romance my life I had just begun When sweet peace holds my breast, Jessie three, James two, and Mason one. 2/28/2019

Inspirational poem which comes at time when we need to count the blessings children bring us instead of considering them an inconvenience or playthings to use how we will, My book Suffer the little Children examines this. Think I said I was an early childhood teacher For 30 years. Book is in LA book fair this year. Best regards David in NZ

Enjoyed reading your winning work. Way to go. Those little ones were a challenge in themselves alone. It is not easy looking after and caring for the needs of three little ones like that. Congrats. Sara

I have ADHD so I must ask...do you really have Jesse James in your family? I am loving this one for sure! And the possibility. Wow! And, next question. Are you from Missouri by any chance?
