Hello. 
Welcome to my Odes page.
The first batch are songs I wrote during a time of sadness for me, after my divorce from my first husband and during the time before I met my third husband.  These songs now seem pretty amaturish to me, but I thought I'd put them on a web page anyway.  It's been too long since I've played a piano (and I never could read music anyway, just made things up) that I have forgotten the tunes I used to play with these songs.  So now, instead of being songs, they are merely odes or poems, if you please.  Just click on the titles below to read these odes.   (If some of the links do not work on the individual pages, just click on the Index button to return here and select again. 
Thank you.
