What Lies Beneath the Sunflowers

This book of poems illustrates the vast and varied range of issues that tug at the heart of people (women, men, and children).

Depictions of good and bad relationships, innermost thoughts and harsh life experiences are laid before you. They are told in a sincere and authentic way that never flinches and forces you to remain fixed upon it. It provides snapshots of individuals, families, and their heritage. Visions are created of peoples sadness, happiness, dejection, abuse, and misuse while others describe tender love, longing, and loneliness.

Reminding us strength and weakness can coexist and the lingering impact of being labeled, the author takes us on a journey that serves as a teaching tool for the young and old alike. The inner hurt, which test the strength of the soul and affect future relationships, is vivid. Race progress and the relationships that evolved provide glimpses of the past and how historical milestones pave the futures path.

Within these poems, there is hidden hope and encouragement that prompts change in circumstances and perspectives of the reader, transforming life we dont talk about into stories of wisdom and inspiration.
