Author Description

Just like your favorite song, these poems are intended to put you in that space you need in order to be free. No longer worrying about the woes of the day. It’s just you and your music. But in this case, its poetry, and you get to set your own music to it. As you read each of these poems, envision the beat of each word strumming through your mind. The tone. The emotions you feel as each syllable rolls off your tongue. The melodic sound has now reached the perfect tempo and your mood has taken over. Don’t fight the feeling. Catch the melody! Move and groove to the rise and fall of each level. Just let it play! Now, imagine the space the author was in when he or she wrote that perfect symphony. It’s a musical ride filled with despair, tension, an epiphany, realization, with revelation, all interconnected and ultimately intended to be a release. A release of the pain and anguish and an invitation to healing. Did you feel it? Yes! I knew you would! So, all you need to do is – the same way you put your favorite song on repeat – read each poem as often as needed until you feel better… stronger… altogether whole. You too, can heal. We Did!!
