The desire to write down, compose and share my thoughts has been an experience beyond belief. It has brought me back to the reality of life, love and as they say—the pursuit of happiness. I am extremely excited to have this opportunity to share my thoughts with you. I have lived an awesome life—full of joy—a little pain, but overall my life has been a wonderous encounter. I have selected a collection of my favorite poems from “Lovers and Other Strangers” “Behind Closed Doors” and “Other Side of Paradise”, the three-poetry book completed in 2018. Hope you enjoy… ERC
