When I was in the 6th grade a friend taught me how to play the guitar and we often got together to sing and play songs together. Any free time was spent learning how to play new songs. I wrote a song in HS for our Senior Variety show and decided on a music minor in college due to my love of music.
Writing poetry takes me back to a time when I felt creative as a teenager and I'm glad she's back!

This is wonderful to hear, Lorie! While I'm sorry there were intervening years without such an outlet, I'm glad you found one then and now.
I've recently become interested in writing poetry and have found that I'm more aware of my senses and have found the key in keeping my mind engaged.
That's great, Lorie. Did you have a different interest in the past that kept you engaged?
