From back cover:
“Seretta’s poems range from the humorous to the sensual, from more traditional free verse (such as Thunder at Coffee Break) to experimental “nonce” forms, including odd and provocative pseudo-Haikus.”                                                                                                    
                                                                        - Jack Webb, Founding Director,
                                                                          Border Voices Poetry Project

Seretta believes that Poetry and Art are essential to         humanity.  Without these forms of creative expression our world would be a boring place.  Throughout history it has been the writers, poets and artists who bravely spoke out. Poets value the TRUTH and encourage us to expand our thoughts and imaginations.  They put us in touch with our inner selves, our feelings and our emotions. This violent world needs poets now more than ever before.
