As to clear up all the encertainties about this poem: the writer could not be Mary E.Frye, as I (Karin A.Vorrink) wrote this poem on March 22nd, 1981. I still have my original handwritten copy in my possession. The first time I read my poem before an audiance was on November 2nd 1994, at the funeral of my father. In my family my grandfather alraedy wrote poetry and wrote music with his poetry. I still possess his handwriten songs (classical). My father also was a writer and both of them were teachers. I, myself have written more poems, in the time between 1975 and 1982. This timespan was a very unhappy time for me, so the poemwriting was a way to "survive" my sadness.
I am a Dutch woman, born on 29th of March 1944 in the Hague in the Netherlands/Europe. My poems are written in English as a result of my study in Eindhoven(NL) given by Cambridge University.
