  Courage  by William Shakespeare O lonely heart so timid of approach, Like the shy tropic flower that shuts its lips To the faint touch of tender finger tips: What is your word? What question would you broach? Your lustrous-warm eyes are too sadly kind To mask the meaning of your dreamy tale, Your guarded life too exquisitely frail Against the daggers of my warring mind.

Please don’t listen to voices that discourage you; hear only our cheers at the finish line We got you, and you’ve got this, run your race Run like America’s very future depends on it and the very democracy on which it was built Run for the doubters, disbelievers, and haters who try to dim the light of your star Run because Queen Ramonda said, “Show them who you are!” Run, Kamala run   Who can...

A book of poetry is a collection of approximately 45 poems and about 60 pages long. " I wanted to present a piece of cohesive art that told a story. I wanted the book, however short, to be representative of a clear point of view. Each section demonstrates ideas, feelings, and wonderings I have had at many points throughout my life. So this is it, a pocketful of poetry. A book meant to engage, start conversations, and give the reader a peek into my heart and mind.  Enjoy POETICALLY! Book Links :  Barnes and Noble        Amazon
