I realized that in my life, I have run through it without taking the time to savor each moment.Today I know Roses do not blossom over night. So each moment, each experience, each detail in my life is slowly absorbed and cherished. As you can see on the cover, I placed my side profile. The meaning of this is that many people may think they know you but they only know part of you. Possibly a story of you, a rumor of you, an experience with you and some of you but never all of you. I have written many poems of some of who I am and Israel Rico brought the words to life through his artwork. Emotions are easily written as well as drawn and the combination in this book speaks for itself. I added extra pages in the book so that you can place personal poems or drawings in them. Enjoy the book and my emotions being brought to life. Lisa Marie Dominguez
