The Journey of a Rainbow

The Journey of a Rainbow…: My Poetic Journal Mind Views

The Journey of A Rainbow and The Poetic Journals were titles I had in my subconscious mind for over since I was in HS. I would have never imagined this could be a reality. I am a Microbiologist by profession, but my passion is poetry, which is where I am most comfortable and at ease in this realm. This collection of poems I hope can reach people’s imaginations as I’ve reached mine. My goals are to be able to bring to you to a world that is nice and unique for the view. I am concerned with the many aspects of life, the world we live in, our environment as how it impacts our present, future and our enduring offspring. I want to see the world like a beautiful flower, protecting it, loving it, and always watering it as I am admiring it.
