Yes

Yes

She said yes

Now a dress

A lacey white dress

No more a girl

A woman

Leaving one family

To build a new

Excited, afraid

Will the love me forever

Will they leave me never

Take the leap?

I will and I do

TOSKA, The Art of Misery

Collection of poems carefully selected from decades of writings to form an intimate chapbook. The illustrated collection grows from sorrow and struggle transformed into a persistent belief things will improve.

As the saying my mentor shared with me goes “Adversity makes you bitter or better.”  In this collection with a Taurean tenacity, we cling and insist that we can make a world better.

Please join me on this journey into TOSKA, The Art of Misery. Coming in Summer.
