About the Book

About the Author

Born in Harlem, New York and moved to Florida to get away from the harsh weather. I wrote this book in remembrance of my grandmother “Lenora Williams” who’s words of inspiration stays with me today. Special heart strings to my parents “Jean and John”. I met the woman of my dreams “Susie” and she gave me hope to publish my first poem “A Day of Marriage”, and the remaining poems. My children and grandchildren help me discover the wonderful and blessed world we live in and hopefully through poetry, I can give something back to them and share with the world, happiness and how we can see life from different perspectives.
