This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
"Ah, my Beloved, fill the cup that clears today of past Regrets and future Fears. Tomorrow? Tomorrow, I may be myself with yesterday’s seven thousand years."

Dearest Reader(s)~
Simply, I want to tell my truths universally, honestly and beautifully. Whatever you read, are the results from a happily thought-ridden life in progress!
Many of the pieces you read here are far from literary (and make the author herself cringe -truly - believe me!) and began as a kind of poetic diary -a venting place for an (at times) frustrated and silly romantic. I have grown (one hopes) considerably since then, but, this has been a wonderful hiding place -a place of debut- and still relative privacy. For me, it is a place of charted evolution (however terrible, or, embarrassing it seems now). And I honor every "misstep" as something that taught me to climb.
I used to emphasisize the beauty-filled aspect of writing so much, that it often sacrificed clarity. But, when it comes to communicating a story, I think clarity is the most important element and ideally, the beauty will follow...
Author's Denites have been lovely! Thanks for your time and eyes!
