    About this ebook

    You will instantly connect to this compelling collection of poems about life – real life – and the day-to-day realities we face. The writer skillfully combines the elements of faith, history, culture, and a hint of urban flavor to tell stories, deal with current issues, motivate, and inspire. Without allusions, the poems are filled with intense emotional expression, vivid imagery, and unique rhythms. As you read, you will find words for your most intimate thoughts and feelings about God, relationships, love, lives that matter, struggles, domestic violence – life! On this soulful journey into the past, the here and now and the forever after you will be awakened, enlightened, and entertained by the power of non-fiction poetry. Open your mind. Pause. Reflect. Visualize. These writings mirror a part of you.

She studied at the University of the District of Columbia and West Virginia State University before receiving a bachelor’s degree in English from Trinity Washington University. “The Virgin” was her first poem published through a publication company at Trinity Washington University.
