Her poems validate the despair and loneliness of the frightened child; they embrace the hurt and sadness of tears longing to be shed; they celebrate self-acceptance and love. Leaves Upon My Easel is a mural of verse that offers insight and hope to those who wish to break away from the chains of abuse and suffering. | Leaves Upon My Easel by Janet Caroline Janet, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
