Bubble Gum at the Register (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781959099611)

Words are important. Words communicate and crystallize thoughts, and can paint a picture and teach values. Words matter. Word meanings matter. For the author, poetry has always been a bit of a brain break before her brain brakes or breaks. She happily spits out words all over a piece of paper then plays with them and puzzles them out as one way to process emotions, thoughts, and ideas. This compilation of musings on a life, during a life, covering the most sublime and aggravating experiences, is her mosaic.

With a Foreward by Edward R. Del Gaizo, author of several books, including "Rose's Gamble: A biographical account of one woman's determination for a better life for her family." Cover art is by Curry Mendes Artist ( currymendes.com ).
