My Little Pick Me Up

Drops of positive poetry blending joy, contentment, happiness, and inspiration with grace and kindness

Beschreibung

There often seems so much misery in the world when the lens of the media is focussed so sharply on everything that is going wrong and as such there is a ready breeding ground for stress and anxiety, upset and pain. This little "pick me up" then is set to counter the negativity with positive verses to put a little bit of sunshine in your day. The mission is clear - an offering of happiness, contentment, laughter, inspiration, flow, optimism, gratitude, joy, kindness, hope and compassion to lighten your day. Read on then and be filled with visions of goodness and possibly be inspired to write your own verses that will lift your spirits as you write.

Autor

Virginia started writing again in 2009 when she was diagnosed with a chronic health condition, finding the process cathartic. She subsequently penned her first book in 2011 taking a multi-perspective look at divorce before writing and publishing a further short story a year later. In 2013/14 she went onto undertake a year-long challenge to blog a poem a day at ginzandtonic.com. This is her first book of poetry. Having had several poems published by other organisations over the years, she wanted to mark the year of the global Covid_19 pandemic by publishing a short collection of Christmas poetry with some specific Covid references. She hopes that her poetry will encourage anyone and everyone to use poetry as a means to express their feelings and to be able to give flight to their thoughts, hopes and dreams. With a background in psychology and behaviour change practice, she believes passionately that poetry can be used to promote wellbeing whereby expressive writing be a means of eliciting and reframing life's experiences. Growing up she enjoyed a Pam Ayres ditty but with a love for the North Cornish Coast and frequent holidays in the area throughout her life, it is probably no surprise that she cites John Betjeman as her main inspiration. She blogs her poetry at www.ginzandtonic.co.uk
