?Some poetry is like the wind?sometimes it moves you, sometimes it blows right through you, sometimes it goes right over your head. Sometimes, you can perceive the impact it will have, and sometimes, you can?t. It swirls and can lift our spirits. It can challenge us to soar to new heights or expose us to great peril. ?Such is the poetry that Apryl has gifted us with in this volume. It moves you, sometimes in ways that you?re not even sure how you?re being moved. It leaves you feeling like a gentle breeze just thrust you into a new place, a new position, a new thought, a new feeling. You don?t know it but you?ve been changed. You have entered into a new world. You?ve seen through a new window and you have changed. ?As you move through the pages of this book, you may find yourself, you may find experiences of power, of passion, of love, of time, of place?moments that change you, moments that expose you, moments that heal. But, you will never be the same.? ?Dr. Stacy L. Scott, co-author of The Confidence Project: A Journey Through the Confidence Constellation, a #1 New Release in Educator Biographies on Amazon, 2021
