"Clever and beautifully crafted, this anthology is a little like love. If you are agitated it can calm you; if defeated, stir you; if dull, amuse you. Refreshing as a river in summer: warming as a fire in winter. As versatile as tea, it can be whatever you need it to be." Anne Atkins, novelist, writer and broadcaster; author of An Elegant Solution.This is Liz Barnes' second anthology. She is very proud to have doubled her ambition of having a book published. Liz is and obsessive about her writing. She describes it as her 'safe place, ' her 'happy place' and her 'greatest communication tool.' 'It defines me far more than social work or Parkinson's ever did or will, ' she says. 'Without art or writing, I would be lost.' As she leaves to go and find herself in another poem! "We all breathe, just some of us more deeply than others.We all feel, some of us just more deeply than others.This collection is all about feelings. The feelings towards those things which matter most in life.Our jobs, nature, our health, humour, ourselves and of course love. "I hope you enjoy these 71 poems and I hope you experience a range of emotions as you read them.I hope they make you feel.I hope they make you breathe.Just not too deeply...."
