THE WOODS DEEP INSIDE ME is a collection of pure soul poetry that embraces life in all its ultimate totality. Experiencing nature as a spiritual healer to whom you surrender your pains and offer your dreams, then bury the scars of the past and start the cleansing process of new beginnings.

This book holds the cycles of life from the faith-filled strength in the womb to the final acceptance of the tomb, a spinning wheel of everyday emotions weaving a strong thread towards spiritual growth. Each poem becomes a milestone along an often-undefined labyrinth road. A getting even with haunting memories, a bold daring voyage into the soul of the poet, building the storyline until the breath-taking last poem "With Open Eyes" in which the metaphors fight a hero's battle and God/dess knows who will win.
