About this ebook

The poetry is about lost love, heartbreak, and the difficulties that are faced day to day. It is full of hope, encouragement, and courage to face life even against the hardest decisions that life can give you. It can be a sentence or even just one word that can change a persons perspective at a time that they are facing a difficult period in their life. Giving another person some comfort even through words can change anyone. If a phrase gives another hope and to continue on, then writing these poems is worth the time. Poetry has a way of getting through to even the strong; your emotions and feelings are ripped open, and you find that you cant help but think about that one poem and how much it can help you understand all the beauty that is around. This world that we live in can be cruel and unforgiving, but if we can see the words in poetry, then we can feel them also.

About the author

Vicki gained the ability to rhyme words after an incident, and preferring the quiet of the night and the beauty of the night with a million stars above you, that is how the title of the book is drawn from, writing under the stars. Living with her best friend, her dog BJ. Wishing that she could see her grandchildren and family more often as they are spread out over Australia. Having a night job is great as it means she doesn’t have to get up early in the morning. Don’t you dare wake her up before her sleep is done. Coffee, white, and two sugars, please, once she is awake. You wouldn’t believe half the difficulties she has been through and that she is still here, which is damn amazing. North of Brisbane is quite beautiful to live in, perfect for her quiet reflections and writing poetry. Give her sentence or lyric from a song and she can, with time, turn it into a poem. Hoping you will enjoy and find encouragement from even one line and it helps you see the miracles that are around you every day.
