Review: Seeds of darkness and light
Rating: 5 out of 5

This collection is one of transition and change. The author's talent is full-grown and this allows her to tell us a series of small stories about a time in her life when she was growing and maturing. These poems form more than a simple exercise in coming-of-age. There is reflection here and as much darkness as light because, sometimes, change does not lead to growth but to dead-ends, regrets and lost opportunities. I can imagine having been told these poems as part of a conversation that ran well into the night with a friend for life. Take this collection out for a coffee, black with sugar, and I promise you will enjoy what awaits you.
