Spiced Black Coffee (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665738514)

On the day I was born on this earth,

my path awaited my premeditated

footprints.

Imprinted in my mind was the

roadmap to my destination,

and the directions to getting there

sewn into my heart.

Inga Marie is a black immigrant who finds serenity in writing poetry, and applauds its beauty and power to heal many wounds.

In a debut collection she began penning over fifteen years ago, Marie shares poems that address not only her life experiences of heartbreak, pain, rejection, love, and healing, but also a variety of themes that include human rights, universal equality, faith, motherhood, and what it means to be a black woman in today's world. Through relatable reflections that offer a safe place for others to study themselves through the lens of her thoughts, Marie encourages an awakening of the soul as she provides a lyrical snapshot into how she persevered through hard times and found her true self in the process.

Spiced Black Coffee is a thought-provoking collection of poetry that shares a glimpse into a black woman's soul as she contemplates her life journey and offers inspiration for others to do the same.
