âââââ Readers' Favorite, Review By Renee Guill

"From love to reflection, journeys to interpretations, . . . Bridges: To There is a collection of short poems that reflect on many things, and encourage the reader, in turn, to reflect on themselves. Peaceful, tranquil, and relaxing are but a few things stirred as the poems invite you to experience mindfulness and appreciate all each poem has to offer in the here and now. Take a moment and find yourself in reflection, harmony, and thought. As a holistic therapist, I . . . enjoy things that will make me think on different levels. There is a lot to enjoy about this book, and it is certainly reflective and filled with rich imagery."

"Peaceful, contemplative and evocative, the poems. . . provide the opportunity to relax and reflect. Read and savored individually, each poem can serve as a focus for meditation or deep contemplation. Alternately, the words can bring a smile to your face as you briefly think about the image that comes to mind, providing peace, tranquility and a deep spiritual connection. . . . a pleasant experience you can return to over and over. . . . beautiful verse. . . a complete experience to help deal with the stresses of everyday life."
