Our love story spans 47 years and half way around the world, from the Island of Kyushu, Japan to the Gulf of Mexico. I want to share with others, still looking for a soul mate, that there is hope. There is a soul mate for everyone but most won't make the connection or take the risk. Art's poems are yours to enjoy and ponder. They are pensive, spontaneous, and hopeful and flow from the love we were blessed to share. He was my true soul mate and love of my life.
