ECHOES FROM THE HEART: Poems of Survival, Healing and Hope is a collection inspired by the
author’s reflections on life in the face of adversity. The poet focuses on the vicissitudes of life and the
coping mechanism each individual needs to adopt to survive and move on with life. Opening with a
Foreword on the therapeutic power of poetry, it is composed of three segments: Life in a Time Capsule, Beneath the Veil and Random Musings, each segment dedicated to a broad philosophy of life. Typical of the poet, it is a collection of exquisite poetic craftsmanship that draws on rich metaphoric language and esoteric imagery.
