When you raise a woman, you raise a village – African proverb
Women are the real architects of society – Anon
I saw her from afar
She certainly stood apart
Like a beautiful Rose
Caught in a family of bramble.

Below is my first just published Poetry Book “Out of the silent breath” which is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
When you buy my book, you support me in an invaluable manner.
Jacqueline writes from her heart on passion, pain, suffering, loss and LIFE. I have been incredibly moved by her poetry and I know I will return to “Out of the Silent Breath” again and again.
If you enjoy my works and would like to do so, you can fuel my creativity with a slice of cake or coffee
a cooking pot and twisted tales 
I love your pieces on everyday people. I’m someone who finds great inspiration from people around me and I see the same in you. I’m so glad I met you here. 🙂

For the longest times my blog was dormant because I didn’t know what to write about.. But then I found my reason for blogging in everybody around me and that really turned around my journey here. It’s people like you who inspire me Jacqueline. Thank you so much 🙂

My computer has crashed so I had to come to the library to get a dose of my “Jacqueline” fix. Sure enough you are worth the effort. I’m having time with a few friends even though my e-mail list is impossible to catch up with. 😀
