Heart of a Poet
()
About this ebook
The theme throughout the book is love and wanting to be loved and the deep need for it and how I expressed myself and the deep emotions I was going through.
My writing was a way to convey the way I felt inside that I couldn't verbalize. My poems were inspired by everyday things and observations, like people I knew and feelings I had for them and a pet I had. The poem "Lost Love" was about a kitten I tried to nurse back to health.
And some were just questions I asked myself or questions I would pose to someone else and my thankfulness to God and the changes that came from it.

About the Author
I dedicate this book to my loving father, who was always there and supported me in all my endeavors. I am wishing you were here to see this book be published and enjoyed. I miss most that I can't share this time with you. This book will be a tribute to your loving memory, because without you, this would not be possible.
In loving memory of

One step, first moment of the movement of life.
The start of a thing anew, leading to a place afar.
Unto new friends, forming relationships far and deep.
Being loved, becoming whole in all, growing into yourself.
Defining who you are and what you want.
Love you seek to the family you dream.
All your life lessons and knowledge obtained.
Each being a color used to paint the picture of your life and the inter you.
You are the canvas on which your art is seen.
From all things overcome to things failed and unknown or overlooked.
