There is so much to celebrate in life - family, love, holidays, accomplishments. The poems in this collection are mostly related to the more traditional occasions. Although these are the ones that seem to inspire me to poetry, I most enjoy the uncommon or quirky celebrations. Consider the anniversary of the Apollo landing on the moon (July 20), the release of “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles (October 1), or the birth of the Barbie Doll (November 21). I have tried to sprinkle our life with as many as I can, and try to surprise Keith at least once a week. Every life has ups and downs. We figure if we can find joy no matter what, we win!
