From the deep South, a woman pens her poetry, as she approaches 100 years of age. It's homespun, old-fashioned, and it's humor-tinged rhymes contain pearls of wisdom. It is a witness that we can make a contribution at whatever age and whatever place. Her son was a well-known experimental film maker, Will Hindle, and a letter to his mother concludes this work. It is evident from the persons who knew Mayo and from her poetry that she was a loving person and was loved. We invite you to open a door to this unexpected treasure of poems.
