This book reflects the author's thirty-five year evolution from self-conscious teenager to confident and happy middle-aged woman. Her poems are personal short stories about love found and lost, daunting challenges and small victories plus humorous and slightly cynical observations on human behavior and more. You will even find a rhyming vocabulary lesson or two. Many of Maggie's poems are childish and whimsical as Shel Silverstein and some dark and forboding as Edgar Allen Poe with a little taste of everything in between. Miss Gunn is very clever yet philosophical and sometimes just downright goofy. You will see yourself and others in many of her poems and be entertained by her unique perspective on many subjects.
