Living, Loving and Learning

About the Book

This collection was started years ago; some as you read will see that I went through different stages which resulted in different outlooks. Some poems have been sitting in my closet for awhile; some are from situations that happened to me and to others around me. My poetry is my opinion and my outlook. Some individual and situations inspired me, while others infuriated me, and some left me completely heartbroken. A lot of this is about relationships---the good, the bad and the ugly of it all and not only intimate relationships. I feel there are several different stages of the 3 L’s of life that many must face and conquer to get to the ultimate level. As we live our lives, we love others in different ways; and we should learn from our mistakes, our success and our failures. We must not become stagnant and just exist we must live.
