Some of the reviews I have already received.


I read the poems, and many times I found my self grinning from ear to ear. I love Erica's sense of humor. It is such a joy to read about the small things that only a good poet and an artist notice. The poems are sensitive, easy to understand because unlike some poets, Erica ensures her poems COMMUNICATE to any reader. Kudos to you, and keep on writing.
