A Cozy Spot for Poets & Lovers of Poetry

Cara's first book:

Heartache and Whimsy

A Chapbook of 22 Poems

   that look at the emotional moments in our lives

 

 

 

 

Here's a sample from the book:

 

Golden Possibilities

 

There are golden possibilities to discover

in the beauty that surrounds me.

The turquoise sky spreads over me

like an umbrella found

in an incense-filled shop

in the narrow streets of Chinatown.

There are golden possibilities in discovering

the plentitude of blossoms

along a country lane

that shout "See me! Touch me!

Love me! Inhale my essence!"

There are golden possibilities in the discovery

that man can escape his perpetual delusion

that the earth and all it holds

are his to control.

"Every writer experiences an aloneness, as if life has raised a rifle and taken aim. We are living in an age where it is embarrassing to register emotions and sentimentality yet, Cara manages to bring her everyday life into her work and so too, allows us to be part of her life so that we do not suffer being alone."
