First Word

I am an artist and photographer -- and a writer.  I am a mother and no one's wife -- not anymore. I am bold, fierce and strong -- even when I feel weak. I am sensitive, kind and generous -- although I am not to myself. I pave my own way -- and make my own path. I walk forward and rarely backward -- my head always high. I am feminine and sexy -- and once in a while I strut. I am a nature-lover and nurturer -- and need some in return. And tomorrow I turn 50 -- and that's pretty great! ~ Michelle Lynn Gamble
