Poetry The Way I Did It

Book Cover & Preview Text
EYES WATCHING was written in an attempt not to write of an experience, just a thought.
EYES WATCHING
Clay-gold ground
Holding pine green
Ruled with brown lines
Over soft lawn
Grass to dream
Flowers rays of colors
Baskets made
To your desire
Earthly heaven
Beauty of an angel
Hands held
Eyes cherish
Leaves of gold
Purple basket
Stand tall with energy
Leaps in the air
Three beauties, three stems
Floats to the window
Eyes watch
A creation of the earth

About the Book
The author takes the reader through a glimpse of what it was like for her while taking a class in poetry writing. She also reveals the types of poems she was writing before she took the poetry writing class. Her poems take you through a roller coaster of emotions from “Tragedy and God” to “Free as a Bird”. During her journey of writing and reading she rediscovered the words of the great Langston Hughes, and it inspired her to write about her blackness and her family stories, and it opened up her heart to write a letter to reconnect with her daddy, who left this earth much too soon.
