A short amount of words that can tell an entire story is what is written on these pages and you'll easily fall in love with the connections made in this book.]]> 2018-12-18 17:53:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315628467 Review lmartinez214 https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315630618 I love this book! I think it is so beautiful, and beautifully written and I love the vibes it gives off. I think the poems are fantastic and I can connect with it on a deep level in many different ways, her writing is different than most poems I have written and I like that a lot, I like the connection to flowers she makes in her book and I like how she can tell an entire story with just a few words.]]> 2018-12-18 17:58:58 UTC https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315630618 Book Cover lmartinez214 https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315631505 The cover of the book represents the story well because the way her book is set up it follows the steps of how a flower blooms.]]> 2018-12-18 18:00:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315631505 Quotes lmartinez214 https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/315633024 "I do not weep
because i'm unhappy
i weep because i have everything 
yet i am unhappy"
I connected this piece to my depression because I am grateful for everything that I am but no matter what I can feel so unhappy and hate myself due to my depressed thoughts and feelings and they can really affect my whole mood.

"i hear a thousand kind words about me
and it makes no difference
yet i hear one insult
and all confidence shatters"
I connected this amazing piece to my self confidence levels. I've gotten better with self confidence over the years but sometimes it can shatter very easily if someone tries to bring me down, I am working on building it up more but once in awhile it can easily go all away from one comment.
"you're everywhere
except right here
and it hurts"
Lastly, for this piece I connected it to my relationship. I feel like we have be away from each other for so long and the world is trying to piece us together but at the same trying to bring us apart each time and sometimes it just hurts to see he isn't where he should be.

I think it's very creative and very well written and I think she covers a lot of topics people can really connect with. It's just a very beautiful book overall. I also think that since it is written in the form of poetry it has a more deep value than if it was written as a story because you can interpret these poems to whatever fits you and I like that about this book. ]]> 2018-12-20 16:39:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lmartinez214/36u6bqkte8ty/wish/316215426
