Have you never read poems?
Have you been put off reading poetry by the comments of others
or by being forced to read stuff at school in a boring environment?
Are you afraid you may not understand what you read?
 
Enjoying reading and then writing poetry has come late to Alyse
Ross, author of this collection of poems. She writes “I was introduced
to a wonderful group of women who studied and wrote poetry. I was
asked if I would like to join the group and so I did. My world suddenly
become full of words, of colour, of joy.”
 
Don’t just read these words on the back cover and put the book down,
but open it and read silently or aloud. Let your imagination flow with
pictures and words. You may be surprised by what you discover.
 
Poetry is for everyone.
