The author of My Patio is Annette Davidson Foley, (1895-1988) my grandmother, shown above on Reunion Night, in West Union, Ohio, on June 18th, 1915. Her mother, Anna May, was a former school teacher. Samuel Davidson was an editor, and the family, including her sister, Roberta, moved around much, and lived in many towns in the state of Ohio. Grandma said she learned how to meet and greet many people! Annette's grandfather, Dr. Davidson, founded Mercy Hospital near Portsmouth, Ohio, around 1880. This hospital was still being used in year 2000, when my mom went to visit.        |
This site was created for language art students to express their feelings, ideas, hopes and dreams by writing their own poetry.
My PatioI sit within your aged brick wallssecure from strident life;I see the tall and lovely oaks'way in the soft sunlight.I hear the sound of chirping birds,now near, now faraway;theirs is the music of the air,the symphony of the day.The sun shines through the stirring leaves,the air is cool and sweet.A yellow butterfly drifts byto make the scene complete.The sky, the trees, the gentle breeze,I thank you all today; you bring a message to my heart from those who have gone away.~ Annette Davidson Foley
