“I know nothing about poems, well the technical part – I just know I love to write: I express myself better. It’s the only place I am the happiest. It’s my safe haven, my place of comfort and relaxation, my company, my best friend.”
Poetry is solace. It is the place where one can document dreams and aspirations, work through painful memories, celebrate happy moments, or mourn loss. Poetry is in everything and in everyone.
In “Lines in my Head”, poet Nicola Small touches on a myriad of topics that celebrate the human experience: love and loss, betrayal and joy, birth and death. Her short form poetry brings potency to a single thought, and her longer pieces leave the reader contemplating themes in more depth.
This anthology invites us along her personal journey as she pens the lines within her own mind. However, her themes should resonate with anyone who shares our human existence.
