My Tapestry of Poems

Author Alice R. Baskin has always loved poetry and writing and because of many changes that have touched her life, she decided to translate some of those changes into poetic words that offer hope and inspiration. It is her desire that My Tapestry of Poems will do just that, and that it will be a force for good bringing out our better angels in return. Everyone has a gift or talent, and it is the author's belief that if all of us were to make a contribution of our talents and gifts for the common good of others, the world would be a better place.
