Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

... A heartfelt letter written and delivered, wanting to convey what you mean to me. carefully measuring each word and line, afraid, as always, of having said too much ... In From California to Georgia A Journey through Life, Love, and Change, Jacquelyn Gallo shares more than thirty poems that chronicle her life experiences after she decides to move from her lifelong home in San Jose, California, to Decatur, Georgia. Presented first as Experiences, then Observations, and finally Lessons, Gallo's poems lyrically illustrate her reflections and newly found wisdom as she transitions from one phase of her life to the next. Focusing on the lessons learned from her new relationships as well as the reshaped relationships with the people she has left behind, these poems resonate with deep heart and compassion-convincing others that no matter what your age, life lessons always help us lead richer and fuller lives. With her pen as her frequent companion as she ventures through a new chapter in her life, Gallo offers a relatable, raw emotional sensibility as she experiences fond memories, diffi cult goodbyes, and new beginnings and shares a valuable message-that loss and pain can be transformed into the keys to joy.
