From Darkness into the Light

From Darkness Into The Light is an inspirational book of poetry written in free style.The poems emerged from a journal that I wrote in order to deal with unresolved issues of personal losses. Initially written for self-expression, the poems interwoven throughout the journal profoundly touched me. I read some of them to close friends, and based on their response I began to read the poems to the public. Again, the response was overwhelming. What I find interesting about the poems is that most are written in about 15 minutes, some a little longer, and others in shorter time. I began to realize that the poems are gifts that flow through me and that they touch others in their own deeply personal way.
