On the outside looking in
She always felt,
some rotten hand dealt,
and that she was,
on the outside, looking in.
But she began looking out,
from the inside,
and a different concept of self arose,
which made the two notions collide
and her whole world recompose.

ABOUT THE POET ~
I am an artist/poet. I write vignettes which are short, simple-language, lyrical poems about spiritual and moral issues. I then paint a picture that represents this thought - sometime suing my puppy, Maya as a muse. My intentions were to give parents a tool to be able to discuss these important matters with their children, closening their relationship. I use simple language to enable all ages to understand complicated issues., I found that adults use these vignettes as inspirational - I have 4 published books -, www.thesunthemoonthestarsandmaya.com
