Description:
Poetic Soul Speak and a Call to Your Purpose
Life Lines was born to bring awareness to mental health and as a tribute to the healing power of poetry. It's a collection with a purpose to help you connect with who you really are and empower you to find and celebrate your unique voice. You'll find poems for the soul and prompts to inspire your own writing. One of the book's messages, "From the heart without fear," is a call to recognize vulnerability as your strength and find hope in one line-life lines.

Review Quotes:
"Life Lines is not just poetry; it prompts you to explore the hidden parts of your past experiences and connects you to your present self. Laura Di Franco has penned a poetic blend of passion and peace that makes you dig deeper into aspects of yourself with spaces to pen your own future through self-love, healing, and awareness. Inhale the poetic experiences she has endured and exhale lessons of how to celebrate strengths and bounce back from your own tough situations. She has truly tossed you a lifeline to stay afloat until you learn to swim independently in the life that you will discover you are the author of. You have all of the questions, and the answers as well." KaNikki Jakarta, The First African American Poet Laureate of Alexandria, Virginia
"Laura Di Franco's Life Lines offer a buoyancy for our lives-a sense of safe passage that gently guides each of us. With vulnerability, allowance, and deep awareness, she meets us in the tender terrain of being human...because adulting can be messy. Her realness and lived experience speak straight to the heart of our one precious life, honoring and unraveling the emotions we carry. She reminds us that we can be our own saviors and that we truly deserve a lifeline at every crossroad, junction, and stuck place. Each lifeline becomes a thread pulling us closer to our fullest self-expression. I felt thoroughly held by the safe, soulful embrace woven through these pages." Lulu Trevena, Author, Poet, Artist.
"Your poems make me reframe life to a simpler time, when interpreting life was less complicated. We muck it up with too much detail, and it becomes jumbled with messy details that are not helpful to contemplate. You clear away the debris of too much information and leave clarity. Thank you for this reset on how to simply be." Sandy Krzyżanowski, Better Day Yoga, LLC
