Candid Reflections is my second volume of poetry. The poetry within is a collection of writings taken from life experiences, from the major struggles of raising children and divorce, to the healing process and rebuilding my life, to the almost mundane everyday challenges, like unexpected bouts of insomnia. There is poetry in all of our lives if we choose to look within and discover it. Walk with me on this journey, perhaps you will even discover bits of yourself in my writings or the courage to write your own.
