The Colors of Me Too: A Collection of Poems

By MAYA and Jello

I know what you’re thinking. This book is the sequel to The Colors of Me, but no. It is a work that stands all by itself. Now if you have not yet read The Colors of Me, you should—and right away. But the Colors of Me Too takes you down totally different pathways, totally different experiences. You’d blush and laugh. Then maybe you might cry a little. Maybe somewhere along the journey, you would find the answer to your question of why. Or maybe you would be left just asking more questions. I cannot guarantee exactly what your reactions would be, but this is for sure: after you experience The Colors of Me Too, you will never be the same.

So hold on to your hats, your wigs, your glasses, and your purses because the roller-coaster ride is about to begin. Enjoy.

MAYA

Maya and Jello was born and raised on the beautiful island of Trinidad, the sister island of Tobago in the West Indies. She migrated to the United States as a young teenager. Her main objective was to obtain a great education in the hopes of affording a better life for herself, her family, and to be a blessing to those around her. This quest led her to attain a Doctorate in medicine. But she never let go of her passion for writing poetry. Her works have been published in various school publications under various pen names. During medical school she wrote a segment in the College newspaper under the pen name Sparkie. The poems in this collection were written over a span of 30 years. She hopes that you enjoy reading them, as much as she enjoyed writing them for you. BLOG https://mayaandjello.wordpress.com/
