Lisa was born into a farm family with very deep roots in Colorado. Her brother and his son are the fourth and fifth generation to work the family place. Growing up on a working farm, felt like growing up in the middle of nowhere. But that wasn\u2019t all bad. As a 4-H member, she rode horseback and raised other livestock for the annual county fair. There was a lot of open space for a kid to explore. The youngest of four, her brother was usually working with her dad. Her sisters, a good bit older, were not tomboys. Consequently, she spent a lot of her exploration time solo.

This alone time allowed for her to interact with nature, the birds on the power lines, the water in the streams and irrigation ditches, pheasants, frogs and of course her beloved horses. Her equine love began with a Shetland Pony. Her folks would saddle her up and place two-year-old Lisa on the back of the pony and walk her around the barnyard. But, when the time came to end the fun, the only way to get her off the horse was to take her off along with the saddle.

The inspiration she drew from her alone time on the acreage led her, at an early age, to begin writing poetry. As an adult, Lisa\u2019s love of nature continues as does her writing. She draws inspiration however from more than the natural world, she also writes about spiritual topics, relationships, current events, love and loss.

This is her third published collection. Each collection has been richer and deeper. Lisa lives in Boise, Idaho. She enjoys walks along the Boise River, attending live music, dramatic and film performances and spending time with friends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
