"Personal and heartfelt, Sprigs and Twigs is a unique collection of poems, on topics ranging from the beauty of nature to the tragedy of death. This volume of poetry gives the reader a sense of bittersweet nostalgia, but also leaves an image of hope and triumph over life’s challenges. An interesting perspective on life that entertains and enlightens. Well done!” |
"The strength to soar with wind beneath your wings is found in this collection of poetry. The poet's descriptions are crisp and vivid. I can see the tabby chasing the mole, the old man wrapped in his cardigan in the garden, and the bowl of milk for the kittens in the loft. I invite you to curl up on the sofa and take an unforgettable voyage through this collection of poems." |
