Welcome to My Poetry Site
Hello and Welcome to About the Poet-Michelle Butler
Thank you for visiting my poetry site.
About Life & Me
I am mom of two adult children and grandma (actually "Namaw") of one beautiful little girl. I was twenty plus years married, I'm twelve years divorced, and living with one of my best friends of forty years. I was born in Queens, New York but have lived in Southern California since age three or so.
I have enjoyed creative writing, dabbling in various types since grade school, throughout my life and stumbled upon poetry simply by way of trying to express my feelings at some particular times or events occurring in my life.
About Poetry & Me
