    The Love Remains

    On Sunday, I finished writing a book that has taken me two years to complete. It was a labour of love. I am glad it is finished but equally proud of all the hours I’ve put into it. Never before has it taken me so long write a story. This one is a Poetic Memoir…

My Lord…I am sinking!” Instead, much more.Still a cry nonetheless,But infinitely louder. Stronger.Shrill but determined.Defying the black, chilling, watery depthsIn…

Snatched moments here and…
