Deborah Leslie Collinson

Daughter of Paul and Joan Pawliuk I'm the eldest of four children born on March 27th 1952 at the then Grace Hospital. My fathers military career and a lifestyle gave to me an understanding of the peoples along my pathway, moving from Province to Province...In 1970 as Ottawa's CFRA and Coca-Cola Ltd. Campus Queen I was given a gift of Radio Media. Subsequently I married,a career military man.So for me the journey continued residing in Canada and the Middle East as well as Europe. I'm now single and reside in a small but growing community of Comox-Courtenay (Vancouver Island) B.C. I consider the Ottawa Valley to be my home as my Brother(Richard) and Sister,(Barbara) Mom and Dad still reside in Ottawa. The poems arrived as a result of the many observations as well as Life's Lessons, some with reflections, and others current events....I have been given a gift..of which I am so grateful to be participating, so it is in the voice of thoughts my works are conceived...I am truly humbled.....May you Smile Always....and... Stay in the Light...Deborah Leslie Collinson
