The Gedichte eines Lebens, Erster Teil (German Poetry Through a Lifetime, Part I), The Early Years’ edition has been written between 1953 and 1979, with a few additional poems in later years. The poems were put on paper in German, which is the time where the author had to readjust from childhood in Africa (an English-speaking world) and school years in Europe (a German-speaking world) and North America, specifically in Canada (an English-speaking world), and to a marriage to a Canadian, Dr. Douglas George Pierce Junior Ludgate, in 1957. During that marriage, the author’s child, Douglas George Spencer Ludgate, called Spencer, was born in 1965. The poems in German ceased to come regularly once the author moved with son Spencer, to Tucson, Arizona, and her world became more English than any other language. Some of the poems have been published, which is indicated below the poems. Others reflect a certain incident in the life of the author, which is indicated as well.The follow-up version, Poetry Through a Lifetime, Part II, Later Years, written solely in English will be published shortly.
