I know someone who’s lost a child. I know someone who’s died of cancer. I know someone who’s struggled with their finances, pressed their way through college, fought to save a marriage. I know someone who felt as if every time they made progress, something happened that knocked them back down further than they were. I also know someone who’s in love, someone who overcame an addiction, someone who succeeded against all odds. For People I Know: Poems of Inspiration is a collection of poems dedicated to those people, and the people in the world that are just like them; to help ease the pain, work through the challenges and celebrate the victories.
