Intro to my Mama and her writtings

My Mom, Donna Zich, was an amazing person and a talented writer! I heard her say something bad about someone else maybe...once or twice in my life. She was a sensitive, smart, caring woman who cared much more about everyone else's well being than her own. She was an introvert who shared her love of reading, gardening, bird watching, writing, memorizing scripture and the art of conversation with me and my 2 brothers. When she died in 2002, she left us her legacy of  poetry and writing. I couldn't even begin to read one of her poems for years because of the tears but, now more than 10 years later, I can actually read some of them without crying. I hope to share her with anyone who loves prose and poetry.
