have observed her in my mind, and in her actual space living in her home.<br \/>\nLike me, she is a &#8220;cat lad,&#8221; but works at helping wild animals as well. She is an avid reader, and  loves caring for her home and property in rural western Pennsylvania.<br \/>\nShe is the oldest of our five children.<br \/>\nThis poem is a verbal description of Salome&#8217;  and was published by Proverse (Hong Kong)  in the spring of 2024.<br \/>\nPlus  a  BONUS  is included in this post.
