About the author
Jacquie is a fledgling writer and lyricist who loves putting pen to paper, sometimes immersed in her private realm. She transposed thoughts and feelings that captured the essence of her life, believing that sharing her stories from a tumultuous time would make her poems, stories, lyrics, songs, and other prose more enticing to others. In authoring this book of Poems, Songs, Lyrics, sonnets, and a limerick or two, Jacquie offers insight into her romanticism and musings on life, love, people, places, experiences, and situations.She kept her writing private for a long time; no one, not even her closest friends or family, knew about it. When she shared her work with others, they tried to figure out who the characters were, and she enjoyed watching them stretch their weak minds. Jacquie laughed as they racked their brains, trying to remember events or points in time. She watched them speculate about who the person might be, as revealed in poems, stories, or scandalous lyrics or songs.This book is a gift to women rediscovering their voices, to men trying to understand them, to artists looking for inspiration, and to anyone who has ever needed to laugh through pain and dance through doubt. It dares readers to reflect on their own journey, their own lyrics, and their own song. Please enjoy my writings, poems, lyrics, sonnets, and a limerick or two.¿
