She recently received an award for outstanding achievement in poetry from The International Society of Poets. She has written poetry since the age of eleven. My aim in writing poetry is to enliven the mind and to express eternal spiritual values and traditional wisdom. The poem, "L'Aubade", depicts shades of my life and Where, this darkened age.


Where

What corner did you mean for me
Within the rock and mineral,
A lofty throne, a muddied cave,
a pavement in a plastic bag
A temple of the people?
I saw the treasury of mind
upon this playground strip
And followed it into the night
but found an Armageddon soul
Destroying the steeple.
