Feelings It's Not in What They Say but What They Hide

Sometimes the pen and paper are my best friends. I love the conversations we have.
I come from a family of soldiers and as a daughter and wife of naval officers, the Armed Forces have a very special place in my heart.
I have dedicated this book to the men and women of our Armed Forces and also to other unsung heroes, some dear to me and some who have touched me in a way that I was compelled to pen my thoughts about them in poems. I probe the hidden soul of a world not known to many. There are so many people who have given our world so much depth and stories. They remain unknown yet go through life with a quiet strength that must not be mistaken for weakness.
I start and end my pages with a poem of tribute to the Soldier
I write unconventionally, just letting the words flow. I have allowed myself that liberty so that I may express myself freely exploring what I am a part of and surrounded by. This is my reality.
Each poem is different from the other but there is an underlying common factor in many, a slight sense of pathos. There is a tangible sense of poignancy in the air, a feeling of sadness in the way our world is evolving today, and that emotion finds a path into many of the lines I write.
