Forward:

Writing poetry has allowed me to let those parts of me (those parts behind the mask) live somewhere during challenging times. That is why I have placed them on the page; to be able to move towards them like a wave and flow into something deeper and greater; all the more powerful.

I see movement in the stillness of my learning.

I accept all that comes to me is meant for my highest good.

Shifting stories of imagery and metaphor; accepting them as they are; weaved together as a symbol of creating a new life.
