Excerpts:

"The Faith of Spiders"

"Still Life with Watermelon, Pears and Grapes"

"Audrey Hepburn at the Dance Studio"

"In a world where change is the only constant, there is always something to grieve: lost love, lost time, lost dreams. Rooted in history, nature and art, THE COLOR OF LOST ROOMS is a haunting collection of brave, vulnerable and sometimes philosophical poems. The collection journeys through passion and loss to illuminate the many rooms we occupy, inviting the reader to discover ways love defines the human experience - and how to survive it."
