About the Book

Anyone can relate to the raw emotion within each poem. We all share the commonality of turbulent family relationships, romance problems, marital issues, and perhaps the slicing pain of divorce. Additionally, many of us are trying to cope with personal loss, grief and death. We struggle to find meaning in our lives and our position within the broad spectrum of our human existence, beginning with the illumination of birth and the darkness of death. You will identify with the joy, and grief, expressed so eloquently by the author.


About the Author

I began writing at an early age, jotting down lines or poems on anything from a scrap of paper, to a hospital menu or recording in a tape recorder. I went to pharmacy school and ceased creative writing endeavors. It wasn?t until my father?s terminal diagnosis, significant medical problems and a painful divorce which again aroused the urge to write prose, poetry and song lyrics. It was beyond my greatest expectations what a therapeutic experience writing this book evolved into. I encourage each and every one of you to pick up your own pen and unleash the poet within yourself!
