We got a chance to speak with Poetic Author, Dorinda Duclos, and learn a little bit about her love for writing poetry! Check it out!

How long have you been writing?

For as long as I can remember, although there was a time I stopped altogether, to raise my children.  Don’t get me wrong.  I have no regrets whatsoever.  If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t change anything.  Watching them grow in front of me was/is, by far, the best experience of my life.

Where did your passion for poetry come from?

I was always inspired by the writings of the classic poets.  Robert Frost, is by far, my favorite, followed by Edna St. Vincent Millay and Maya Angelou.  Now, it’s nature and things of beauty that inspire me most.  I often write about the seasonal changes, usually in Haiku.

Do you write anything other than poetry?
