Abstract
This collection of poetry is a hidden journey of an old soul with a youthful heart. In this place, childhood nostalgia longs for self-discovery and identity. As the poems move to explore the depth of life, they celebrate simple moments and what is hidden there.
Topics in this collection include Childhood, Daddy Issues, Finding Myself, My Man, The Working Man, Dealing with Loss, The Lake, and The Cemetery.
