Peace on the Journey: Poems
The poems of my book Peace on the Journey explore the theme of renewal in the face of adversity.
The book is available at Amazon.
About Me ¿Quién Soy?
- Judith Mercado
- My writing frequently explores multicultural themes. Born in Puerto Rico, I moved at a young age to the U.S., where my parents became Pentecostal ministers. Early immersion in Latino and religious cultures preceded later experiences as a businesswoman, a White House Fellow, and life aboard a trawler cruising from Martha’s Vineyard to South America. These sometimes incompatible worlds have given me a respectful outlook toward differing points of view. My short stories, poems, and essays reflect my own inclusive, yet sharply defined, journey across cultural and socioeconomic boundaries. I recently published Peace on the Journey, a poetry collection which explores the theme of renewal in the face of adversity. @peaceonjourney

I've found no words to speak of Haiti, for it's bigger than my comprehension will reach.
You have found the right thing to say.

Beautiful!
Malcolm, I agree with you. Even now, having written the poem already, I find myself searching for words.
Nevine, thanks. Coming from you, that's high praise indeed.
Judy
Amen to that. Beautiful and inspiring.
Greetings from London.
PS: Word verification, 'halitian'. It's in moments like this that my atheism is put to the test.
We are all sending monetary aid to Haiti. How wonderful to dedicate a haiku too. These are hard times, but it's good to see people care.
I noted A Cuban in London below; I'm a big fan of his blog. We must have connected through him. So nice to meet you!
