At the age of 13 I entered the ninth grade. I decided to take Speech Class as I was very timid then. I knew right away that I wanted to be a writer and began writing poetry at the end of my speeches.

This was my calling. Singing was my preference but poetry became my first love. I can only write what my heart dictates to me. I am sure this was God's plan and I shall continue to write until I lay my pen down with a last Amen.

Thank you for visiting my website. I hope I leave you with some comfort, laughter and maybe a tear to cleanse an aching heart.

May God Bless You. Carol, 'Song of Joy'
