Summary Review of her work included in The Poetic Bond VII

 

“Layers of Being – Indeed a poem of many layers, exploring what it is to be human”

“The Lone Star – This seasonal evocation of autumn places man firmly within nature … a  well-structured and well-written piece.”

“sometimes the dark doesn’t move – Precisely structured, short piece with a big message.  The non-moving dark is a strong metaphor for the social funk many of us find ourselves within.”

 

(Trevor Maynard and the editorial Team, The Poetic Bond Series)
