Poetry for the Soul is an inspirational and motivational piece directed toward enlightening the reader about the power of the soul's ability to reach higher spiritual aspirations. The writings are real. She said, "Poetry to me is never fictional, because life is not, it is something heard, seen, smelled, tasted, and touched, as we live, so it is. It is as real as the five senses we possess, for some it's six." It is the culmination of the events of a person's spiritual enlightenment in hopes of bringing joy to the reader's heart and soul. This uniquely designed poetry book is about love, faith, hope, and determination. The peaceful images will allow the reader to pause to see the still beauty of God. The soul is the essence of the heart of a person, the inner being of man or woman. Whatever we possess in our heart, whether it is beauty or beast, will radiate from within our being to the world we see. Life is real, and it is better to find the good in the leftovers instead of complaining about the food you get. This book is about embracing life while holding on and not letting go. Inspired by the life of the author as she strived to live beyond the challenges filled with disappointment, joy, despair, triumph, withdrawal, shame, and much more. She never lost hope or her desire to write, always knowing that there had to be something greater, better to life than what she had. She was blessed by God to put her feelings on paper and to share them with the world. Being a spontaneous writer, these writings are very unique and were written to bless your soul.
