Transparency of Emotions,
By
This review is from: True Emotions (Paperback)
Michelle True is a poet with strong self-respect who makes her own choices in life and deals with the consequences. In her newly published work, True Emotions, Michelle discusses old and new relationships, the sensuous pleasures of everyday life and loves in a self-contained and thoughtful way.
Each word is placed with care on the page with spiritual power and often joy, as she serenely blends emotions with descriptive sounds and original expressions. Michelle sometimes writes with a subtle feeling of disappointment in life, reminiscent of Emily Dickinson's self-contained solitude, that carries you throughout her writing and reveals a quiet passion and love of people and life combined with expectation of something better. Her poems have a calming effect on the soul, of acceptance of life as it is, yet striving for more, as she ties together beginnings and endings often surprising the reader at the finish. The sorrows, hurts, acceptance and release of the act of divorce is poignantly described throughout the book, leaving the reader with a deep compassion for the wounded self felt by the author as a sweet dream turned sour. True Emotions drains the dross in all of us to reveal the nugget of gold Michelle True leaves at the bottom of our souls. It is a book everyone who loves poetry's simplest, truest reflection of life as it is and how we wish it could be, will want to read and place among their finest works of poetry, as well as share with others. - Joyce Ann Edmondson, author of "The Listening Tree"

A breath-taking look into the heart and mind.,
By
This review is from: True Emotions (Paperback)
Michelle Ailene True has written a menagerie of masterpieces in this breath-taking look into the heart and mind. Love, desire, discontent, self-pride, family and much more are described with such talent of expression. Whether it be in rhyme or just in everyday language, the reason is evident in each word. Provocative, happy, sad, or even playfull, Michelle brings each piece off the page and into your heart. Sharing so much of herself, that it is hard at times to separate her feelings and experiences from your own. Michelle pours so much of her soul into these writings that you may forget, like I did, that she is an author and instead a friend or even a voice from within your own heart. It is easy to identify with her inner and most personal thoughts as she reveals the most honest portions of her life. With each writing I found myself eager to move on to the next. Exciting, fascinating, moving, and just an excellent book. I love poetry, and Michelle's brand of writing is both unique and powerful. I can't wait for her next work of poetic perfection. - J.W.Bradford, author of Voices of the Heart
