Verbal Visualizations

About the Book

This is a collection of some of my poems. At times when my mind gets heavy and situations are not easy to handle, I find myself with a pen and paper in hand; I allow my innermost feelings to flow out onto the paper. Writing is a form of expression. Some of these poems were inspired from past relationships, life experiences, or merely reflection of the current trend of today's youth as compared to the past generations. I hope you enjoy! Be blessed, beautiful and live for what makes YOU happy!!! For in happiness is peace, progress, and success. Be proud and be you!!!
