Poetry is the alchemy of thoughts in words. It guides us toward the path to beauty, joy and wisdom. It paves the way for an enriched life. As music heals and comforts aching hearts and souls, poetry brings clarity and sparks of positive energy. It clears up the darkness within and infuses light and brightness to change the perception of our life's direction. BIO
