It’s always exciting when one of your readers leaves a review for your book.  Since I’m always forgetting to check Amazon UK, I was reminded to do so.  Here is the review.  Thank you so very much!

A lovely 5 Star review of my book, “Short & not always Sweet“.


Another treat from Dorinda

A lovely collection of stories, ideas and sentiments. Pieces range from as few lines to a few pages, each a blossoming element within a vivid garden worth closer inspection. ‘He watched me drown ‘ was a favourite but there are loads of different ideas to enjoy and many feelings like they could blossom into even prettier things.

Monochrome Life – #writephoto – #poeticprose – #poetry

Colors taken from my eyes, black and white before me; memories sway under clouded skies, how I long for this to restore me. Amazed by how it still stands there, tall, though bowed in the middle, such grace; I’m pretty sure eventually, I’ll fall, while this house still stands in its place. Structured to last throughout the storms, its life perseveres, timeless; my only hope is to me, it warms, so I may cling to its fortitude, with kindness.

*****

To follow the path of the once, so grand, the home where I grew, I return to; I no longer own this land, although, truly, I desperately yearn to. Instead, I walk the grounds at night, afraid of the light of day; tis why my world is in black and white, and how it will forever stay. Now only spirit, no mortal being, I wander throughout this home, knowing there is no one seeing, I am free to be me…and roam.
