60 year old female living near the beautiful Myall Lakes NSW. I used to write, draw, paint and dream a lot in my youth. The realities of life got in the way and in the process of surviving I misplaced my creative self. So I guess by joining Neopoet I'm hoping to recapture that piece of self lost long ago. I haven't written for over thirty years now, so I guess I'll have to start off with the words of my youth, however immature and naïve they may be!
The lyrics of songs inspire me most these days
Bob Dylan
Paul Kelly and Pink Floyd mostly.
Nature and children are also a huge inspiration!
