This earthly plane offers much for us to learn: happiness, wisdom, loss, heartbreak, and enlightenment. It is a Pandora's box of emotions, situations, opportunities, and failures, all wrapped into a package we call life. Nobody is immune, but everyone has the opportunity to grow tall or wither like a flower in harsh light. It's completely up to us how we choose to respond. Finding Hope in the Darkness of Grief is a gleaning of insights from artist Diamante Lavender. For her, life has been a long, difficult road, but it has taught many poignant lessons. Her poetry collection is an exploration of the human soul, a traversing of situations that life throws at us. Diamante has always been intrigued by the ability to overcome and move on to bigger and better things. She writes to encourage hope and possibility in those who read her stories. If she can help others heal, as she has, then Diamante's work as an author and artist will have been well spent. She believes that everyone should try to leave a positive mark on the world, to make it a better place for all. Writing is the way that she is attempting to leave her markone story at a time.

A poem begins (and ends) with a single line, and expands into a countless number of lines. Each group of lines is a specific type of poem with its unique rules and structure. In this book, I explore poetry writing; starting with the one-line poem and continuing in numeric order to a variety of multi-lines poems, including the age-less favorites like Haikus, Limericks, and Sonnets. Lets count and lets write poetry together. Be assured, Its as easy as counting 1-2-3!
