Poem Excerpts

What Do Readers Say?

I’ve just opened the first page and I am hooked by the Life poem. This is my favourite sentence: «Cause one step leads to another And I know it has to get better!» Reading Ms. Martin’s Poem collection is just amazing. Her poems are light, easy to digest and they are beautifully arranged. Guys I think you should read the poems and feel the positive vibes in them.
I highly recommend Ms. Martin’s book for any poetry collection.

Poetically Correct!
This poet oozes with feminine self assurance, admiration of the experiences both ups and downs of Love and lust. I particularly liked the poems One, Inked, Secrets, and Guardian Angel. There were times I felt her loss. Loss of a person, hope and how to navigate those emotions. I look forward to more from this Poet.

Beautiful set of poems! It was really relatable. Those heartbreaks, finding yourself, acknowledging the darkness within you…My favorite poem would be «If,» though, as it hits way too close to home for me.
