Step into a world where memory glows like a lantern, creativity flows like the tide, and even winter's silence carries stories worth telling. Lines and Time: Reflections through Memories, Connections, and Becoming offers a collection of poems and short stories that speak to the soul. These pages trace the shape of a life through moments both fleeting and profound, mornings shared with hummingbirds, evenings warmed by firelight, and winters wrapped in wonder. With tenderness and wit, the collection explores the threads that bind us: family, friendship, loss, growth, and the joy of unexpected adventures. For those who listen for meaning in quiet places and find transformation in the ordinary.
