Introduction

This book is a compilation of poems that not only reflect the authors deepest expressions and experiences of her life but it is hoped that it touches and relates to the core experiences in the lives of all women. It is an attempt to express our relevance, not only as women but our place in the bigger picture of the Universal scheme of things.

Thus, the title Women and Trees is most appropriate because without them life could not be possible nor sustained. The attributes of one mirrors the essence of the other.
