I am an author, poet, humorist, and short story writer living in Long Beach, California. I write about various topics, from my early childhood in Philadelphia to my years as a family therapist and finally to my soul-searching in California. These are poetic narratives that may have humorous or serious content or both. Either way, I hope my poetry and stories resonate with you. My books include Magical Yogis, Uncommon Love Stories, Awkward Grace, Junkyard Souls, and Rain on Cabrillo.

      Thank you for reading it, Liz, and giving me your reactions. Pain and being homeless are inextricably tied to one another. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    Very touching story. What is life without one’s closest and dearest friend?
