Delta Donohue, who lives in Littleton, Colorado, spent 14 years working in corporate America before looking up and realizing that life was calling her! She now co-directs a non-profit working with street Children in India, runs a social business helping to economically empower rural women in India, co-hosts a radio show for Metropolitan State College called Engaging the Ostrich and is an increasingly active poet.
Delta believes strongly in the transformative power of words; those we think internally, those we process through reading and writing, and those we speak to our world.

Dreamscape
My dreams are disjointed lately
As if they struggle to play pick-up-sticks with memories fused by fiction
I wake, neither saddened, nor emboldened,
Simply amused at the juxtaposition of lives I have not lived
And moments long gone
Now framed with clothes I did not wear and skills I do not have
And more
The bewilderment of tales told where I play no part but merely
Act as narrator
In retrospect
As if,
An obituary of sorts.
