After, Before, During

This book is a collection of poems, written in the way my husband says I tell stories. The end, beginning and then middle. My mother always wanted us to publish a book of poetry. I am excited that today is that day. This book is for young and the old. Some poems were written when I was merely 10 years old and others just yesterday. May this writing resonate with your life, but also bring new perspective to walking a moment in someone else's shoes. My one request from any reader is that you find someone and share one poem from this book with them. Share the beauty, the pain, the puzzle or anything in between. - A.L. Sanders
