Moments in Time 

There are times in our lives when life seems to become less of a friend. Frustration is only a step away as we try to find a way to a positive future. Taking a moment in time gives a person time to reflect and hope to a weary heart that still has determination as its foundation. There is no tomorrow without a belief that it can be and there is no success without believing in your dream. It is so easy to give up and seek sorrow as all anyone needs to do is just quit but a winning spirit will always have a winners heart.

A propos de l’auteur

When I write and see the words come alive I am amazed that what results comes from me. As a child I would see my mother write short stories and poems and would be astouned by her creativity. As I got older and began to write my own works, I noticed that I too had a gift similar to my mothers. This would lead me to a lifelong love of writing poetry. Poetry to me is a written visual of how life or something in life encourages me or a reader to think a certain way or do something a certain way. I want to see my poetry reach into somone’s heart and mind which will hopefully spur them to do something positive. I truly believe this way of thinking was a motivating factor in my life. Even though I grew up in a single family home, I tried not to focus on the fact that we were poor because I knew my mother was doing her very best. Her determination instilled in me values that helped me as I grew up and I hold them dear even to this day. I pray that this collection of poetry will reflect what she instilled in me and will also encourage someone else to do even better.
