A Simple Place is a collection of poetry where readers are invited to take a deeper look into the world in which we live (pinpointing on the U.S.). A Simple Place vividly expresses our world and helps to open the eyes of readers so they will become aware of the everyday things that we fail to take notice of. The book is broken down into four parts: A Simple Place, His Light Brings Life, In This Mind, and Dear New York City. A Simple Place, points out the simple things in this world that we take for granted or ignore. His Light Brings Life focuses on the importance of God's Love for us and His gift of salvation. In This Mind is a section where the emotions and thoughts we as people, all carry and how our emotions can effect our behavior. Lastly, Dear New York City almost tells a story about certain areas, people, and situations that I have witnessed about New York City.
