Poetry is often a reflection of one's inner soul. Diary is a book written in poetry that expresses the life of the author. Lastrice Robinson wrote a book of poetry as an outlet. "Life is not always the way you expect it to be." So as life happened for her she expressed herself with her pen. Undoubtedly from the time that she started writing in 1998 to 2007 she grew into a strong woman. As you read you will see her growth as she experienced hurt and joy. You will also see how her spiritual walk with God became the center of her life. It is our hope that this book will encourage you to always press forward and know that your dreams will become a reality.
