Tangible Echoes: A Collection of Inspirational Poetry and Thoughts
Author

C.A. Dickinson

The author was born on a warm spring morning in 1950, the second eldest of four children. A happy go lucky child, Colleen smiled her way through her childhood. At the age of 11, she started golf lessons with the late great Les Franks of Islington Golf Club, who had taught Al Balding (the first Canadian professional to win a PGA golf tournament, in 1955). Throughout her teens, Colleen played junior tournament golf in various Ontario towns. Her fathered fancied her to turn professional, and she admits she did have a dream of playing with the lady pros one day. At 18, Colleen was dealt a good dose of adulthood when her father and golf mentor suddenly passed on. Thoughts of fairways were left behind, as Colleen turned to business and commerce and put her secretarial skills to work for her. This was in the day of shorthand and typing, and Colleen's skills were topnotch. She tried marriage but it didn’t work for her, and it lasted for only a few short months. 1973 found Colleen a young single working mom. She worked on freelance assignments in and around the city of Toronto doing secretarial and computer work as she raised her lovely daughter to maturity on her own. Colleen was always open minded and tried to see the positive and the humourous side of things. Certain books which she believes she was meant to read seemed to jump off the shelves into her hands. In her 30's, Colleen was honoured to meet Mr. Edgar Mitchell at a private cocktail party at the Harbour Castle Hilton in Toronto, following a seminar in which he was one of the keynote speakers. Ed told of his life as an astronaut and how he conducted telepathic tests while he was in outer space. Colleen learned that after he had left the space program, Mr. Mitchell established a facility to study the psychic phenomenon ... but Colleen's mind was already beginning to open up to the universe, although in a different way. She had undertaken the study of metaphysics, in keeping with her own Christian principles. One of Colleen's fondest hobbies is writing. She once penned an article for a local Toronto-based newspaper featuring a new golf store in the area. The sponsors of the tournament invited her to play golf with the lady pros at Thornhill Golf & Country Club. This was the unfoldment of a girlhood dream, and Colleen managed to keep a positive attitude throughout the rainy round, even chipping a shot in in the hole after calling it, no less. Colleen’s article entitled "The Invitation" was produced with a love of golf and a true humility for being afforded the opportunity to play. As the century came to a close, Colleen left the hustle-bustle of the city behind and moved to the country. She took the proverbial plunge once again and, after 35 years of being happily divorced, she re-married. Colleen and her husband, a retired rock and roll musician, now happily reside in a small town in rural Ontario. Colleen is working on completing her manuscript about spiritual clarity and God's laws, entitled "Things Unseen" and her second compilation of poetry, entitled "The Dance of Love". Colleen proudly answers to the name of "Nan" for her two beautiful grandchildren. Life is good.
