A Life's Canvas : On changes, chances and choices

A life's journey in poetry by a nurse from the Philippines who came to Britain in 2001

Every person has a story. Each has their own impressions of life and expressions of how they tell their story - mine is through poetry. In every experience may it be about the weather, a lesson learnt, a prayer or just a thought - I jot it down. I then put the words together - somehow they connect until it becomes a full story to tell. I usually write at night or at dawn - which explains the moon, the stars and wishing wells and the love of art of any form. Poetry is a hobby and I'm still learning the ropes of writing - learning to put words together like a proper writer should. The aspirations, inspirations and moments of each day - I learn. I discover more of ME and who I am as the journey continues. I discover who I have become. While my hobby keeps me on my toes, let me share this hobby (and this journey) with you. As you go along, please let me say "Thank You" for stepping into this journey with me ... the glimpse of who I am.
