My Left Arm

Velynn Saunders, originally from Philadelphia Pennsylvania, has been writing poems since the age of ten years old. She loves the spoken word and inspiring teenagers and young adults to pursue their dreams regardless of their circumstances. She feels any word not spoken and not shared whether written or verbally leaves room for fear, prejudices and mistakes; like drowning in your own righteousness. The poems written are different experiences that she experienced herself or through others that have crossed her path. Writing poems helped to free, to heal, to renew, and to let others know that if she has overcome these experiences; anyone can. She lives in Fredericksburg, Virginia and has three children. She has overcome her fears by publishing her first writings. Lets have a moot!
