WELCOME TO THE "LOVE BLOOMS" BLOG HOP! I am showing some SOUTHERN LOVE!










WELCOME TO THE  
"LOVE BLOOMS" BLOG HOP! 
I am showing some SOUTHERN LOVE! 


We love to talk about love. We love to read about love.
What is a better time than in May, when the scent of new grass and flowers are in the air? 
I write  A LOT about love !
My poetry writing started in full  bloom with a love poem. My first dozen or so poems were all love poems.  I wrote my very first poem "Our Place" February 14, 2007.
I woke up out of my sleep with that poem swirling around in my head. I, quickly, got up and scribbled it down. After that the poems just started to flow and flow . 
Actually, all of the poems that I write could be categorized as love poems, of sorts. 
Most of the poems that I write , are about my deep love for the people , culture and lifestyle of the South. One reviewer dubbed my first collection of poetry, Reflections of Mississippi Magnolia , a "love letter to the south". I, wholeheartedly,  agree with that description. In my second book, My Magnolia Memories and Musings, the love affair continues.
