I’m delighted to share in the excitement of this New Release by author D.L Finn. This is her first release of a book of her poetry. “Just Her Poetry: Seasons of a Soul” Please make her welcome.
Thank you, Suzanne, for having me on your blog to celebrate the release of my first poetry book, “Just Her Poetry Seasons of a Soul.”
Finn Facts:
- I have a tittering laugh that my older grandkids find amusing.
- I’m a cat person who has dogs.
Blurb:
Take a journey with D.L. Finn as she blends her love of nature with her deepest emotions. Sit with her on the forest floor observing its tranquil beauty, or stroll along the ocean’s shore admiring the vastness of its horizon. Here in these peaceful moments you’ll be able to experience her thoughts and feelings in the light—and in the darkness. This is a thought-provoking collection of poetry that invites the reader into all the seasons of a soul.
Excerpt from THE EMOTIONS: Those Feelings
WHIRLWIND
It entered my life like a storm…
Blowing everything familiar away from me.
I clung to the numbness it left behind.
It holds me above the weight of evil
That tries to drown me in its darkness.
I gasp to fill my lungs in this whirlwind
That swirls life around me hitting me with debris.
I’ve stopped ducking the pain, coming to expect it.
My normal life is ripped away from me, cruelly.
My comforts—gone
My emotions—grim
My distrust—growing
I swirl in this whirlwind brought to me like a present…
All I can do is survive this whirlwind of illness.
D.L. Finn is an independent California local who encourages everyone to embrace their inner child. She was born and raised in the foggy Bay Area, but in 1990 relocated with her husband, kids, dogs, and cats to the Sierra foothills in Nevada City, CA. She immersed herself in reading all types of books, but especially loved romance, horror, and fantasy. She always treasured creating her own reality on paper. Finally, being surrounded by towering pines, oaks, and cedars, her creativity was nurtured until it bloomed. Her creations vary from children’s books, young adult fantasy, and adult paranormal romance to an autobiography with poetry. She continues on her adventures with an open invitation for her readers to join her.
