About this listen

This collection of 80 poems is meant to bring encouragement and inspiration to anyone who has ever thought or dreamed of writing, whether personally or professionally. Writing takes many forms, whether it’s a letter, diary, blog, article, story, play, poem, or novel. I will confess my writing leans in favor of fiction.

These poems are also meant for listeners, because we cannot have one without the other. The goal of any author is to have universal appeal. Thank you for considering the work of this author.

“Poetry is music in words.” (Marlene Mesot)

Foreword by award-winning artist/author Lynda McKinney Lambert.

I met Marlene Mesot and Lynda McKinney Lambert through Behind Our Eyes, a writers' organization to which I belong. I've enjoyed reading these authors' work, and Lynda's foreword adds a nice touch to Marlene's book.

The poems in this collection carry the same message as Anna Quindlen's book, Write for Your Life, which I reviewed here last week. Both authors are encouraging us to just write the words down, have fun doing it, and hopefully find solace and/or healing. This Audible version's narrator does an excellent job bringing out these poems' whimsical qualities. Marlene said she leans more toward fiction, but I think she has a knack for traditional poetry. I hope she publishes more collections like this one.
