Open Window, is a collection of experiences, from my life, set in poetry.
Each section, has a different feel.
Some are beautiful memories, of the seasons, others are memories of things from my youth, such as baseball games, skating dances, and long walks in the forest and hills!
Others, are darker-emotional views,from the hard times in life.
Then there are inspirational ones like the when you know that there is someone, "watching over you". There are also some whimsical ones, like, "Why", or "Children Dream-Parents Wish"....the things that children wish for, and the things that parents hope for. There are many to read, each one a journey.
Excerpt

I have just finished reading j.k.gravett's new book entitled, "Open Window "
Her book is full of passion, heart-break, warmth, deep rooted soul emotions.
I read it in one day, could not put this book down!
A lot of the pages that I read I felt the same emotions.
I am sure that when everyone reads her book, that they will also feel the same way about it as I did.
All her descriptions, feelings, heart, hurt, you can feel in this book.
Ms Gravett is truley an old soul, with the eyes of a child.
I would highly recommend this book for all to buy.
In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
