Mary S. D'Amato, Author of Longing, Loving, Leaving, Living


“I know now that I have to write. It’s not a choice; it’s a compulsion. Even today there are times when it seems as if I can’t express what I’m feeling any other way but with poetry. These selected poems reflect many of the passages in my life from longing to loving; from leaving to living fully. Thus the title. My poems are so personal and yet the experiences of longing, loving, leaving and living are universal. And so I hope as you read these verses, and we share these experiences, you see your own strength, power and worth reflected in my poetry.”

What has been your experience of love? What do you long for? Whom and what do you cherish? Mary’s words will touch your heart with tears and smiles bringing renewed compassion and joy. Get comfortable, curl up and treat yourself as you relive your passions of longing, loving, leaving and living.
