Just joined

Hello, I am doreen or DEE and joined yesterday. I love poetry so I have already posted 3 poems. I have written about 1000 over the years. I have 3 children (one died 19 years ago) very suddenly and very tragic; you never forget but it does get easier. 6 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren. Very family orientated and still very active I am 76, I live in Hull and I am a Volunteer for City of Culture 2017. So that will keep me busy. I also run a Mum's and Tots group at my local church. I also volunteer at a pre-school nursery and have been there over 10 years. I have been married to Brian for 53 years and we love our holidays. Go away as often as we can. I am looking forward to talking to other members on here. I love life and most times I am a very happy person.
