She’s written nonfiction articles and poetry online and for national magazines and journals (including 20 poems published in Cosmopolitan Magazine, 5 poems in Woman’s Day, and 18 posts in the NY Times Metropolitan Diary). She has also been nominated for a Pushcart Prize.

Today's poem is reprinted with permission from her latest book of poetry, “Older Wiser Shorter: The Truth and Humor of Life After 65.” Seskin’s poetry is authentic, funny, insightful, quirky, and heartfelt. A Reading Guide to the poems is also included and will inspire further reflection and discussion for book and women's groups.
