Within a Tear, a Smile and You

Within a Tear, a Smile and You is an intertwining passage of feelings, love, regret, sadness, loneliness, happiness, and adventure. The book takes us on a journey of emotions as it travels through memories, others’ stories, and people and places that have left a deep imprint in Ailsa’s thoughts and follow her throughout her life.

The poetry comes from deep within Ailsa’s heart and feelings as she tries to express how a simple gesture of a smile, a walk in nature, a swim in the ocean, the comfort of a loving hand, or the feeling of freedom in the art of the dance can affect your moods and carry you on a cloud, taking you to a place where you find inner harmony and dreams that you dare to come true.
