Although poetry isn't my favorite genre, I read poetry sometimes and appreciate the artistic nature of this genre. I'll certainly read these poems that talk about the author's journey of self discovery.
Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

A book of spiritual poems sounds intriguing. But did the author get her inspiration from nature or her spirit? Worth finding out.

Unfortunately, I do not "appreciate poetry as a genre", mostly because of my disability to understand the intricate art of words and double meanings even in my native language, leave alone the secondary self learned. More the pity, after reading the awesome reviews of the poetry book like today's BOTD gained, but as it is I will have to pass it. Still, congratulations!

I find poetry to be the most truthful and effective form of expression. Expression of pain at losing and the healing journey interests me. Thanks for a detailed review!

Based on the review, this sounds like a lovely book of poetry. I have never been a poetry fan, so I won't be adding this one to my list, but I am convinced poetry fans will enjoy this book immensely! Thanks for the excellent review!

Thank you for the great review, but I am also passing this one along to poetry readers.

I'm not a fan of poetry but the use of correct punctuation and the themes covered in this collection will make it a delightful read for old and new poetry lovers.

This is so touching, what an heartfelt. At the beginning of the author expresses challenges as we all know that when you are meet to be great, you need to pass through tempestuous time, thrown from post to pillar and pillar to post but at the end it's all joy.
