The Silent Bridge

About the Book

As a very sensitive girl, moments in my life which touched me deeply were sometimes difficult for me to understand, and even more difficult to express. To cope with the feelings, I found consolation and healing in printing my deepest feelings on paper, which helped me make sense of the confusion or heartache, or would allow me to rejoice in the celebration and good times. My “coping” technique began in high school and helped me through many years of friendships, loves, marriage, divorce, and significant life events. Putting my feelings on paper often allowed me to let go of the pain or heartache, or would lift me up and truly give me strength to carry on. My poetry is what helped me move through all of my early life’s experiences.
