Biography
I started writing poetry in 1995 I was awarded a editors choice award in 1997 by The International Library of Poetry My lifetime is from Experience not earsay and not out of books . So many people Bury their heads in the sand . We all need to take heed and talk out loud .Being a Mum ,Gran a Great Gran in my 74 th year made to feel not worthy by the Establishment and like most People. Need to write my Experiences down . We fostered teenage girls 30 years ago who had been abused then but nothing much has changed . They still say they know to do things better .
Samples
ABUSERS , WHY DO WE THINK SO LITTLE OF OUR CHILDREN ,THEY ARE ABUSED EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY,WHY DO WE BURY OUR HEADS IN THE SAND ,WHEN OUR CHILDREN ARE ABUSED YES BETRAYED ,AND WHY IS IT THE NORM , TO THINK IF IN CARE THEY ARE LESS NEEDY OF THE LOVE THAT OTHERS CAN SHARE ,AND WHO IS IT DECIDES THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BETRAY CHILDREN'S RIGHTS TO BE CHILDREN .

Hi Wendy.
Thanks for commenting on my latest story about Fred Floppit. He was a pensioner when I was a kid, but his escapades were legendary in the village where I grew up.
Cheers Kevin

Good afternoon to you Wendy.And awwww! (re The gravy train)I feel sooo guilty now for having corrected your spellings-especially since I too have been corrected for misspelling-haha! Had I known you were a (lovely)lady of senior years I can assure you that I would have withheld my suggestions. Please accept my apologies and the warmest of wishes.Thank you.Jemima.
Hi Wendy, :-) (With permission M.C.:) "...We must all write things down and leave a thread because if we don't who will listen". Regards Wendy . Indeed Tommy
You are more than welcome Wendy, and once again, apologies for the train wreck. You made a very fine point. I've been the woman who says no, and wasn't heard, so it's painfully close to my heart.
Take care, Laura.
Thank you for your comment a couple of weeks ago. Have been absent for a while
