Sorry I’m Late
This compilation of 27 poems was written over the course of 25 years, from 1998 to 2023. (The title is reflects the author’s extreme delay in sharing her work—and yes, that is a unicorn finger puppet, taking time to smell the azealas!) The main theme of every poem is self-empowerment: remembering who we really are and reclaiming our innocence, our freedom and our joy. A secondary theme is the healing power of nature, which is also conveyed in the full-color nature photographs taken by the author, a graphic designer by training.
