A River\'s Journey to the Sea - A Collection of Poems

People can relate to this...:
"An Innocence Stolen" was the most powerful piece I read. It is so horrific and truthful. I think a lot of people can relate to this and I like the end when God is questioned. I think when something bad like this happens in a person's life, we wonder, why me? It is painful to read, but a message like this needs to be heard. "Sunshine" gives people hope and it is light and fresh and is just a "feel good" piece. "A Celebration Of You" is about happiness and love to me. It is about being in love and the beauty of life that goes along with it. "If My Heart Could Speak" is also about love and happiness. It is short, sweet and to the point. "Lost Souls" is a powerful piece about the neglect, indifferent world we live in today. It is honest. "My Wall" is about that one force/person in your life that sticks by you no matter what. It could be God, Family or a loved one. "Misty Wind" is about hope for a better tomorrow and is illustrated so well in the word usage. I liked that it was a lot about nature and being lost, lonely and scared. People can relate to this.

Inspiring-Surreal:
You ever had such deep feelings about something but didn't know how to express them or share them with that special one. You ever had such deep feelings, which made you think it was somehow bad to be feeling these feelings? Well let me tell you ... we are all humans and we sometimes go places in our heads or think things that are ever so pure and just so normal to feel. Jackie, to share and actually put them down in a book in such a creative manner and touch so many who have felt that way, is a gift that can't be ignored. And to share them with people who would have thought it was strange feeling this way, have just opened up a new path to new adventures of where the mind can go. We are free souls, let us fly and not fear! Well done Jackie, who would have ever thought feeling this way was humanely possible and so inspirational as well as uplifting.

A compelling and moving journey of the mind:
This compilation of poems takes us through a journey of love and lust, despair and hope. A truly magnificent collection of poems.

A River's Journey to the Sea:
A River's Journey to the Sea... is a touching and moving compilation of minds and hearts.... I enjoyed reading the poems that constantly remind me of unavoidable journey of life- through light and darkness; happiness and sadness and through hope and despair- contrasts in life that we human beings are destined to taste each and everyone of them once or many times in our lifetimes. The good part of the book is that the more I read it the more I enjoy it. I strongly recommend it to everyone as all of us are to live through one or more of the experiences narrated in the book. M.D
