Through poetic artistry, Through the Eyes of a Poet speaks from the heart several glimpses of who we are and how to overcome. Over the course of several years, writing poetry and this collection have captured the voice of God through the heart of a woman, a sister, a daughter, a friend. Because of her ability to hear the Spirit’s voice, she survived and was made even stronger. I want to share with you what helped me. Poetry is what poetry gives.
About the Author
Inspired to write poetry as a release to find strength, as an art to express love, and as a challenge to see life beyond what could visually be seen, she writes and presents Volume 1 for readers who are willing to step out, acknowledge, and see that you are not the only one. She felt it a call of God to share in whatever way you receive it, pieces of her life.
