My 2020 Vision

This book is dedicated to my Mum... KayKay

I have been writing Poetry from the age of 11 and could often be found in Holland Park cafe when I should have been at school. I was writing poems in exchange for cups of tea, teenage girls always wanted a poem to give to their latest love or ache. I am a single mother and have raised my girls on very little money, so I know the struggles are real, my girls are amazing young women of whom I am very proud. After a near death experience with my last child, I went to college and in 2005 passed my Reiki Master Level. I have Darshna Vadera, my Sensei to thank for this. Reiki was a complete life game changer for me and I have been blessed to be able to continue this practice in my day-to-day life. Reiki has got me through some of the toughest times in my life mentally, emotionally and physically, I feel everyone should get to experience treatments. Reiki allows the body and mind to work as one. Reiki absolutely helped with everything in my life. I will spend the rest of my days practising and sharing the Reiki vibrations. I have always been encouraged by family members and friends, regarding my poetry. This year I was inspired to reach out and try to get some of my poetry out there... So here I am.

My Poems always have a sentiment of emotion in them I write as I see and feel it. I always feel the energy of the subject I am writing. Writing is my way to learn and digest life's teachings. It is a release for the ramblings that go on in my mind and a compass for which I can follow. My Poetry is very much about living, loving and the whole cycle of life hope you can enjoy and relate in some way to my heart felt works from my heart to yours.
