    About this ebook

    If you are looking for sophisticated prose or poetry, poetry that you must ponder for days to find the meaning, this book is not for you.
    This book is simply the honest thoughts and feelings of a very ordinary woman. I hope the one reading this can say, Oh, Ive felt that way! Perhaps take comfort is some words and feel nostalgia at others.
    This book talks about country life, love, loss, and a look back on what used to be.
    A friend once told me I write poetry for those who dont like poetry. I take this as a great compliment.
    I would hope this book finds a secret spot in your heart where you can sit back and reflect.

    Author

    Deanna Boomhower

    I was born in Dawson City, Yukon Territory, and was raised in the northern interior of British Columbia. I grew up in a wilderness setting for the most part, which gave me a love of nature, wildlife, and the beautiful wild and free north land.
