    About this ebook

    This book is a collection of poetry that covers a wide variety of topics. Many of these topics are controversial pertaining to love, incarceration, death, illnesses, angels, and many more. This collection of poetry was inspired from many personal experiences that I have myself encountered or have witnessed. This collection of poetry expresses many emotions that are buried in the deep soul and conscience. Once you start reading the journey I have lived through you will find yourself relating to many of my own obstacles.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Yours is the first face I saw when I came into the world. At first, I was scared. It was so cold and bright. But then I heard your voice. I remembered it immediately — warm, deep and comforting. I didn’t expect you to be so big. My whole body fits in

      L ong dark hair with dark eyes, a brain and a musician. The eldest child and sweet 16. A generous nature and an understanding heart that warms the soul. A ready smile followed by laughter. A leader and a lover of frogs. A gentle poetess that sees many things beyond her years. Jolita… .

      Tanned skin with pale eyes, a brain and an athlete, a middle child, but 10 years old. A beautiful shaped head, a sense of style that cannot be taught. A loving heart that teaches and the artist who creates such beautiful pictures with her hands. Is this all negated by baldness? I think not.
