"This lady's pen is dipped in pure magic. Your life, my life, the collective soul we all share is Maria's passion. Fun, laughter, and tears together. Riveting poetry both blue collar and sublime at the same time, moving seamlessly like a soft trade wind through strawberry cotton candy, lost love, the joyful confusion of marriage, children, and other confounding mysteries. You'll never curse the human condition again."-Dr. Bob Basso, author, historian, lecturer, and movie and TV actor

"Maria's poems are filled with passion and truth. You will weep, sigh, and laugh out loud. Her words are equivalent to touching your soul. Everyone should have this experience."-Paula Swornay, international opera singer, actress, and Ms. Senior California 2003

This award-winning poet and published writer illuminates the reader's life with this awe-inspiring work. ... A must-read!"-Dr. Angelo Pizelo, president of Emerson Theological Institute
