Hi, my name is Ginny, and I
am a senior Senior, which means only that I have been around for a very long
time. Physiologically I suppose I am aging properly, but mentally I seem
to be dragging my feet. I can't quite get the hang of this growing up
and getting old thing. However, I am having a better time in my life right now
than I have ever had before. Presently I live alone, which I believe has
enabled me to write most of my poetry. I feel I could not do that with
someone else around, because notions can strike me at peculiar times of the
day or night. I also think being by myself so much has allowed me closer
and more frequent communication with God. Although I joined the church when
I was much younger, just recently I have rededicated myself to God and
the Christian life. Most all of my poetry has been written since then,
and I feel it is my way of witnessing for the Lord. I also feel that God is
directing my writing, because I have never written this way before in my life.
I seem to be writing fast and furiously now, because I don't know how long I
will have this gift, and I also feel I have many dry years to make up
for. I want to extend my thanks and love to my friend, Amelia
Anne, who has given generously of her time and talents to set up this site for
me. I also wish to express my gratitude and love to my friend,
Beverly Padgett of Tennessee, without whom probably none of this poetry would have ever
occurred. Another dear friend, Penny Parker of Colorado, showed me that age does not matter - that the world can still be my oyster. The Lord has richly blessed me with these dear friends, plus many others, and I humbly thank Him for
allowing me to be so fulfilled at this stage of my life. I am pleased that I
am allowed to share some of my poetry with you, and I hope you will enjoy your
visit.
