The dance between words on a page has the ability to move us in many directions. How we react to those words, both as a reader and a writer, tells more about ourselves than we might think.This book is a collection of poems ranging from Space to Earth to Family - from the vastness of the Universe to the intimacies of interpersonal relationships. Life, and the meaning of life, is many things to many people. Examine our existence. Examine ourselves. Can we draw many parallels? Maybe.Whether our lives are touched by poetry or not, words have staying power beyond pen on paper, words spoken aloud.It is not always what we write that carries weight in our lives, but what we don’t write - the pauses, the spaces between where we stop - the unwritten words. Truths often live between those lines.
