The books are here!!
Here I am at a local Arts and Crafts Fair displaying and offering my new poetry book WOMAN WANDERING 1975-2015 The response was warm and complimentary. Now I am holding the book in my hands. I feel its personal power. It wants to be shared and read. What an appropriate time of the year to be thankful and grateful for the joy of writing about the memories of my life as a woman, mother, artist, educator and lover of Nature and new places.

More wandering toward the Tree of Life
Woman Wandering.......is a book in print!!!
WOMAN WANDERING 1975 -- 2015 POEMS BY NINA TEPEDINO
Woman Wandering is a collection of fifty poems spanning forty years of poetic reflection. It is a memoir in poetry, the new genre, to be considered and honored as my style to chronicle my life as a woman...my life as artist...my life as teacher...my life with Nature... my delights and displeasures and my elder wisdom to be absorbed and heard. As I walk toward the Tree of Life, an elder Black Oak at the Gold Ridge Farm in Sebastopol, California, I embrace the living and growth in my life, as my creative force prospers and continues to wander.

Mother Earth
Your skirts are the clouds you shake to make it rain
Your red lips are the blossoms from many cultured gardens
Your hair is braided with vines encircling the sphere
Your tears spill forth from the melting ice caps
Your heart is full like the ocean churning and bubbling in waves of
anxiety and worries like Mothers do.
With your patience and prayers you give us more time to learn new ways,
like Mothers do.

I responded to very provocative and complimentary questions and comments. I feel great pride as a Redwood Writers member to be featured as a poet. My first book of poems will be entitled: A Touch of Time, published by Lovejoy Press.
