I was a child during WWII and it had a lot of impact on my life. I immigrated to the United States in 1955 and we were

We had three sons. Divorced in 1981. Met a nice guy after that and have been living with him for 10 years or so, after living on my own for 18 years. I published a book of

on my website, www.Poetrymart.com. Send me a message on my
e-mail elenbaas@comcast.net. Thanks! Buy the book! It's only
$22.95 and was published by AuthorHouse. com.
