Hi, Everyone! My Name is Shirley Caron, I'm 70 years old and I reside on the South side of Indianapolis, Indiana with my loving Husband, Mike. I have come a long way in my life, despite the Disabilities that I have, such as: Two Steel Rods in my Spine, Degeneration of my Spine, Lower Back, Hips, and Both Knees, I have suffered with Epilepsy since I was 14 years old, I have Osteoarthritis and always walk with a Cane for support of my Back and Legs, and now, I am mostly in a Wheelchair because the Degeneration has gotten much worse, and a few other things, but, I do not let these Disabilities keep me from achieving my Goals in life. For several years, I have been a Renowned Poet and was Inducted into The International Poetry Hall of Fame in 1992, I have been a Songwriter for several years, and I am now embarking on a new Career in Singing. I went on a One Woman Crusade in the Summer of 1991. I brought my Poetry in Folders around to different Churches and Organizations that gave out Food to the Hungry, as a Gift of Love. I have had Write Ups done in three different Newspapers: The Southside Times(in Indianapolis, Indiana), Spotlight(in Indianapolis, Indiana) and The Taunton Daily Gazette(Newspaper back home in Taunton, Massachusetts). I did a Presentation at The Church of The Lakes in Nineveh, Indiana and also did a Radio Interview at The Recording Studio at The Indianapolis University in Indianapolis, Indiana on WICR 88.7FM. I Performed for my Church Group, and Sang, "Just A Closer Walk With Thee." I am very proud and honored to say, that, I have received a lot of Recognition, High Achievement Awards, Plaques and Anthologies from several different Poetry Organizations, and I have recently had a Poem Published with The American League of Poets, entitled, "Beyond the Reef" which is a popular Poem with all my Friends at AdlandPro Community! I would be any too glad to help you with any questions or comments that you may have about the fascinating World of Poetry! I am displaying several selections of my Poetry and Songs on this Website: "Shirley's Poetry Corner" , . I love everyone here at AdlandPro, and I have been honored to have made such special Friends! GOD BLESS EVERYONE AT ADLAND PRO! Your Friend In Christ, Shirley Caron
