The Girl Who Didn’t

De: Paloma Gaskin

Narrado por: Paloma Gaskin

This is a poem that does not rhyme, because life-changing moments do not rhyme, or fit perfectly in order. Each line of the 22-line poem, conveys a multitude of lived experiences, and is stacked like the title for emphasis. To sit with the title (without even opening the book), and the question it prompts, would be more than enough - to jump start a shift in perception about the pathways of life, where we intersect at heart and meet for a virtual cup of tea. The stories we share (and those we don’t) tell other people how we wish to be remembered, sincerely. In chaotic times, we are shaken but we survive.
