THOUGHTS OF A SERIOUS WOMAN

About the Book

“I write about life, relationships, experiences and things I see going on around me. Writing is a release, a way of expressing how I feel, a clearing of my mind.”

A small book of poetry, covering the larger issues of life. My soul is at peace when I can be alone with my thoughts surrounded by the beauty of nature. The written word, like beautiful music, leaves behind a tangible essence. This collection of poems is the tangible essence I leave behind from an African-American woman’s point of view, expressing a certain state of mind on various issues. Words are a powerful tool, beware how you use them.
