Poetic Messenger

Everyone has a story to tell. Veronica White believes that stories should be told in a poetic or prose fashion that enable people to relate and feel the experiences of others. She believes that stories of people who cannot write or express their experiences in life must also be heard through written or spoken words. In order to tell the stories of others, Veronica has learned to empathize by putting herself in the other persons shoes or in the situation. As a result, she writes as a messenger to tell the story of the joy, pain, and frustrations of others -- as depicted in the poetic prose: Anger swellsStories tellOf emotional painThat is not mine to claimThe oldThe youngThose who are illiterateMust be heard throughWritten or spoken wordsThey cannot writeThey cannot reciteDark tales that stole their lifeStories of shameStories of blameStories of guilt are not mine to claimI am just the messenger of their pain.
