Deanna's Poetic Dreams

02/23/2026

Attention Friends & Family: I just signed up to read some of my poetry at the Everybody's Got Talent show sponsored by A Place 2B Me, a fairly new non-profit special needs organization started up by two of my main supporters, Stephanie Caldwell and Dalenna Braine . The performance will be on March 27th and emceed by my buddy Joe Maglio and his dad Lou Maglio. I was unable to participate last year. So I can't wait for next month. Please come join us, whether it's to share your own talents or just sit in the audience and watch me and all my friends perform. A Place 2B ME

Using CoPilot, I created caricatures and an American Girl doll with Beal's Syndrome and incorporated my future poetry book, disability awareness, Country, Christian, and Broadway music, We Thrive Together Zoom chats, and plays/musicals. We Thrive Together Ohio

Tuesday, January 27th and Sunday, February 1st , my mom and I once again volunteered for a sensory friendly event with CCBDD. Got to pass out fidget toys, direct families to accessible restrooms, hang out with friends, and watch the performance twice. This time, we were at Playhouse Square's Ohio Theater for Billy Goat Gruff and Other Tales. A fun take on Goldilocks and the Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, and Billy Goat Gruff, through the eyes and imagination of a mouse and raccoon. This was a puppet show style performance by two puppeteers from Nova Scotia.
