Growth Rings
A Collection of
Poetry
By: Lori King
Growth Rings: “A concentric layer of a medium developed
during a regular period of growth.”
From the
romantic fantasies of a teenager, to the joys of motherhood, and the sorrows of
a twenty-one-year-old divorcee, Growth Rings encompasses the rise and fall of
childhood dreams. It is a peek into the mind of a child who struggled to love
herself in spite of damaging experiences and a woman who hasn’t figured out how
to love her inner child.
Walk with me
through the ebbs and flows of my growth rings. Journey through pain and
triumph, occasionally examining the effect that society’s prejudice has had on
me as an individual. It’s my reality and my fantasy all neatly packaged in a
series of poems.
