About Me
- Willow
- I have lived in Boca Raton, Fl for twelve years. I am from Jamestown, NY, home of Lucille Ball, Roger Tory Peterson, Natalie Merchant and the Ten Thousand Maniacs. I belong to an online writers' group, The Skywriters. I am a member of The Poets of the Palm Beaches. I am also a member of the Florida Writers Association. I regularly attend the yearly Festival of the Palm Beaches which features famous poets who teach workshops and also read their poetry. My most recent teacher was the most wonderful Eleanor Wilner. I encourage everyone to check out the Festival. I love poetry, I love writing poetry. Four years ago my husband of thirty years was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It is our new journey and we have been active in the crusade to fight this devastating disease that robs life by killing brain cells. My husband speaks regularly for the Alzheimer's Association. I am his care partner.

I LOVE this Di. I love the photo and the poem of you and Russ. It makes me smile.
Thanks for sharing your poems, Diane. Excellent work! I loved your poems! Glad to read your recent work. My thoughts are with you and Russ. Hugs to you both.
It HAS been awhile, Diane.
Glad you are 'back' and I know
you both WILL rise to the
challenge.
I like this Diane and the photo seems kind of ominous. Love to you both.
I feel tears and tenderness about you and Russ, rising to the challenge. Life hands out such tough challenges. And of course it is not the challenges that define us, but the rising.
Beautiful and loving, Diane.
