Dear Dispatches from the Heartland Readers:
A number of my poems are being published in magazines and journals. Written Tales Magazine recently accepted a group of 4 pieces and just posted a new one this week. You can read it here: Emergence.
As always, I welcome your comments. Thank you again for your interest in and support of my work.
Suzanna

Your poem evokes a sense of hope in this world where hope feels harder and harder to come by.
Thank you Suzanna :-D
