Nancy Ellen Crossland Poems Multi-Category Countries Member Profile My life has been filled with blessings. A long marriage, 2 sons 2 daughters and 4 wonderful grandchildren. Poetry has always been a great interest to me since I was a teenager. Recently, I have had a "reawakening" and tapping into my creative resources. I am so thankful for this website, where creativity abounds. I feel energized and passionate about writing and anticipate the unique poems I read. Poetry is forever around us in countless forms. I also love art and enjoy playing the piano. I particularly enjoy the beauty of nature in all its never ending change. 341 poems online - viewed: 71297 times. 17 other documents online - viewed: 6019 times.
