Poetic Risings

About the Book

Rising- the dictionary states it is a sloping upward, coming to maturity,growing, emerging, and the act of someone or something rising. I believe we as humans' fall in this category throughout our life, from birth to death. Many changes transpire, we rise and we fall, we live a life in search of inner peace. Some of us search for this inner peace through many different medians, such as silent prayer, walks with nature, meditation, listening to instrumental music, reading scriptures in the Bible and or reading Poetry. When we read what someone else has written, and we can relate to it in someway, it helps to ease the pain of our sorrow. I have fashioned my writing of poetry in a way for others to relate to, focusing on writings about things we all share a common bond with, which is life. Please let me invite you on a journey into a world I see. A world divided by love and hate, fantasy and reality, loves devotion and forbidden desire, the death of stars and unknown heroes, social interludes, the beauty of nature, childhood, motherhood, marriage and family, faith, peace and war through poetry.
