Years pass,
without fail,
no time to wonder
or unveil,
but as the future unfolds

and lays at our feet
those timeless treasures
that set as concrete,
into our minds
as a frame on a shelf,
wonderful memories,
are like nothing else.

Tina Marie Winslow was born in Warren Maine where she enjoyed riding her four-wheeler, swimming and camping with her parents and two older siblings. She now resides in Bayonne, NJ, and works in Jersey City as a Jet Ski tour guide around NYC. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, watching bad TV shows and snuggling on the couch with Chan, her boyfriend of 5 years, and her 4 adorable cats.
