IM THINKING is a rare collection of poems that explores common emotions and experiences that appeal to people of various age groups, cultural backgrounds, and social statuses. This new book of poetry artfully renders the author's struggles and accomplishments in her unique life circumstances.

It is entertaining, conversational, and inspiring.

IM THINKING is rooted in the poet's differing perspectives as: a child who was written off by the mainstream educational system; a teacher now entrusted with helping children to pursue their destiny; a university lecturer who supported student teachers and a parent and grandparent determined to leave a lasting legacy. Most importantly, this book conveys the heart of someone who has emerged victoriously from the effects of debilitating past experiences.

Strong metaphors and description

demonstrate the integrity of the speakers in these philosophical poems. Im Thinking is a mosaic fitting together West Indian and English cadence. Clarion reviews describe it as relentlessly optimistic and tirelessly gracious. Her debut collection takes up the galloping themes of transcending limitations and defying expectations. Inspirational, exhorting hard work, self-belief, generosity, and gratitude. Kirkus Reviews James starts strong, with Reckless Portrait featuring powerful metaphors in reality verses. Blueink Review
