Bitter Sweet

So much to love and yet

now I can see
feelings felt so long ago
as once more
wings begin to spread
But now
the eyes I looked up to so long ago

now look to me for love and trust
I will not fly away
The collection of poems in Bitter Sweet is just that. We have all experienced pain, heartache, and hopelessness. But out of those experiences, we have gained insight and hope.
Join author Linda Tofanelli as she takes us on a journey of all of the bittersweet intricacies of life-love and pain, beauty and ugliness, fortune and loss, and war and peace. We are all reminded to see the beauty in every aspect of our lives.
