Pink & Blue Flordelisa Mota

Flordelisa Mota has created a collection of poems which are exciting, humorous and touching. These lyrics will make the readers look at life and love differently and love to dream. They invite the reader to join in what Mota calls the "feast of fulfillment." She says she wrote this collection of love poems to share her inspiration with others, which is true, but it's also true that these poems have written themselves. Clearly one senses that love's inspiration showers these poems with the real and profound impact from where true love springs. And then there is Mota's love of the Word and not just the written word. But written words are, of course, her stock in trade and in this collection she shows how a master of words can take everyday speech and make it shine. To enhance this second edition, Mota created an outstanding narrative. The epic poem Yoruba's Fairy Tale is about a family who lived in a small village in Haiti. This poem is a journey to understand their belief, joy, sorrow and finally triumph. Book cover design, illustration and photograph by Abiezer Mota
