Decades ago, I lived in Schaumburg, Illinois temporarily
working for a jewelry company decades before
I found my true vocation in working with the elderly
in Greensboro, North Carolina.
I visited Chicago once, and I liked the towering buildings
and the feel of the city.
I know it’s different now, but that’s how it felt to me
back then.
I loved Schaumburg, the best libraries
I’d ever seen at that time.
And great pie shops. How I loved those shops.
Maybe Schaumburg is different now, but I loved
it back then and believe I could have been happy
living there permanently.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
