Darlene Ewers published her first book, THE SEA, a children's poetry book, in 2009. However, her poem "Emotions" was published in 2000 in AMERICA AT THE MILLENIUM THE BEST POEMS AND POETS OF THE 20th CENTURY by The International Library of Poetry.
Darlene grew upon a dairy farm with two younger sisters in Wyandotte County, Kansas. They attended the same one-room country school their father and his siblings and their grandfather attended. The smallest number of children in attendance was fifteen and the largest group of children included twenty-one representing all eight grades. It was the last one-room school to be closed in the State of Kansas before it was moved from the bank overlooking Island Creek to its permanent resting place at the Agricultural Hall of Fame near Kansas City, Kansas.
Darlene has enjoyed reading since early childhood, reading a hundred books during her eighth grade year in grade school. Her favorite school day memory was listening to her teacher read the Laura Ingalls Wilder Little House books during inclement weather or before the end of the day. Darlene has compiled and published her poems in her second book entitled SEASONS AND SENSES Poetry & Other thoughts.
Mrs. Ewers is the mother of four grown sons. Brendon, Sheldon, Landon, and Jordon; she has four daughters-in law: Maria, Ellen, Jennifer, and Susan; and she enjoys her three granddaughters, two grandsons, and two great-granddaughters who range in age from thirty to five. She has been married to James for fifty-five years. They are blessed with a loving family which supports one another through every event of their lives.
