My name is Maria! I have been writing poetry it seems all my life. I am working on a collection of Native American poetry. I enjoy reading poetry, as much as writing it. I am the proud wife of a United States soldier. We have five wonderful children, and eight beautiful grand children. My family is my passion, my inspiration. I am very new to this site, so I’m still learning my way around! I think I’m very down to earth, I’m Native American, and most of my writing is a reflection of my culture. I think life is fragile, and moments count! I think one should live real, and love hard. And I really do believe weeds are flowers with no names.

Lyrics / Waitless Change
Your message is very clear. The piece gives the reader very good visual, and insight into your passion. I did find it hard to see this as a song. I thought the read was good. Your word play worked very well. I would say this has the makings of a good song, it's just to hard without music, or even an idea of the type of music you are creating. You expression is just wonderful.

I really did like this piece! I could feel your emotion, your sadness, your passion. I think I was so moved because it felt real, not forced, or made up. I think this piece had heart. This piece was an easy read, but very heartfelt. I think poetry is best created from ones heart. I liked the style, the flow was nice, and you left the reader knowing your feelings without over doing the piece. Very nice!
