Blog Posted:6/10/2016 9:02:00 PM

Hello my dear friends!

I have been gone far too long and am glad to say I am back for good.  ::laughing:: Like a bad penny I keep turning up.  Been some long crazy time but I am looking forward to participating more and doing more and writing more.

Posted a couple new to PS poems that I haven't posted since my membership expired, but I've kept writing, or I've tried to when time and circumstance allows.

Looking forward to reading and commenting and getting to know more of you wonderful people here as well!

Love to all!!

Tru
