I am a Californian, born and raised. My husband, Greg, and I Iive in San Diego, California. We have two grown sons, both married. Our older son, Eric, is an artist and filmmaker and our younger son, Jeffrey, is a film editor and composer. Their work is featured on their website, Albino Fawn Productions. We have two adorable grandsons, the younger just recently born in June, 2021! We also have an adorable granddaughter! I was an R.N. for many years, and chose to retire early. I am a Christian and active with the women's ministry at my local church. I love music, the arts, and have dabbled with poetry off and on for the last several years.

Laura Leiser Poems

A Special New Poetry Soup Member!

Blog Posted by Laura Leiser: 5/12/2016 1:21:00 PM

I just HAD to announce to you all that my son, Jeffrey Leiser, joined the Soup today! I'm very excited about this, and have been encouraging him to join and share his poetry for some time now. I hope you will take the time to welcome him to this site :)

Also, recently a friend, John Watt, joined PS, but has yet to post his awesome poetry. I hope you will encourage him to do so, as he is quite good and loves to write sonnets!

Thanks, Soupers!

Laura :)

Congrats! It's a real connection for my (oldest) daughter and I that we both write here. Looks like you have some big-league talent in your family! Congrats!

Welcome Jeffrey and John. As you can see below, there is a nice variety here. And for the record - I luv Dachshunds!

That's great! Jeff (and I) love all dogs, of course! He worked in a dog daycare, was a vet assistant, and a dog walker in NYC for awhile.

A BIG Thank You to everyone who has welcomed my son, Jeff, to the Soup! I really appreciate your encouragement for him, and hope he'll take the time to post a bit...he does have a full time job and supports a wife. Doesn't have the luxury of free time like I do, not that I'm THAT lazy, of course, HA!

I can identify with a "proud mother" sentiment. Wish Jeffrey well from us all at Poetry Soup and say that we hope he enjoys his membership.

At 1:46:00 PM on 5/12/2016, the Seeker responded to me with "I luv bugs". This is the second time he has displayed this harassment to me and I have copied it in case he removes the post.
