Patchwork of Rhymes : Smiles and Tears
Bok av Debbie Rogers
I've been writing for many years now, but I can only say my inspiration came from the death of my firstborn daughter; I had never written a poem until then. I wasn't even after that a consistent writer; I took writing in spurts, so to speak. In fact I tell everyone I can't just pick up a pen and go to it; I have to be hit over the head with some type of inspiration. Death has been a leading inspiration, as I have written countless poems for funerals for friends' families. But I have never considered myself to be a poet, just a simple rhymer. As I've said, "If I can bring a smile or a tear to those who read my poems then I'm truly happy." Debbie Rogers
