Come Check Out This Sneak Peak, Before Buying My Second Poetry Debut “Scrapbook”!
It’s already out for sale on Amazon
This February, my second poetry debut “Scrapbook” came to life! It took me 8-10 months to produce this beautiful gem. It was worth the time, stress, effort, weeks, months, days, and hours!
Scrapbook is a collection of poems that talk about some of the happiest memories I’ve made throughout the years. I had the desire to write a poetry book about some of the positive memories I’ve made, because I wanted to tell people that I also have lived and currently live a productive, happy, and positive life, and how it’s not all negative. I also wanted to share my loves with the whole world, because I enjoy talking about myself.
Before you purchase my book, I’m inviting you to read this excerpt from Scrapbook. Hopefully, you adore it enough to want to purchase it, and/or add it to your TBR lists!
1. The Young Craftswoman- haiku
Wooden craft needles
balls of multicoloured yarn;
I had busy hands!
2. Cowgirl- cinquain
Young girl
hanging around
unrushed, slowly, at will
a new animal friend to make
a mare.
3. At The Spa- haiku
A hushed indoor spring
took a dip in the H20;
hello contentment!
4. The Birthday Of The Tree- free verse
Happy birthday tree!
Without you,
we wouldn’t have survived.
You’re the reason
why we’re still alive.
We’re thankful for your presence
and everlasting friendship.
We thank you for giving us
the freedom to enjoy the fruits
you’ve harvested over the years.
5. Welcome To Junior High- free verse
My gut
was flooded
with flies, tadpoles, flowers,
and splashes of colour.
I was psyched
to turn this page
of my memoir.
On September 7th, 2010,
I hopped into
the vast, ochre-bricked,
and 1970's resembling building.
I finally turned
the page
of this book,
as quickly as I could.
6. Prom- acrostic
Poised woman clothed in her
Royal garment, stood tall and gorgeous
Open-heartedly entered the dance floor
Moments of pure merriment, cavorting, and chit-chatting mindlessly.
7. Cruising- haiku
Floated away
lived on a holiday boat;
had a superb week!
8. Zoopark- cinquain
Fauna
multiple kinds
furry, prickly, silky
mammals, birds, primates, reptiles, frogs
the zoo.
9. Sushi Rolls- free verse
Chopsticks in my blush-coloured hands
ready to courageously scarf down
those salmon and spicy tuna sushi rolls!
Sushi rolls became my new best buddies
that I didn't want to neglect;
my little, chubby, hungry belly kept shouting,
"I NEED MORE SUSHI ROLLS, OR I WON'T MAKE IT!"
10. Chicken Soup- free verse
A precious bowl of
golden chicken soup broth,
and curly yellow egg noodles
is the traditional Jewish cure
to all physical, mental, and emotional
maladies!
