Words Of Expression

In her poem "The Lost Courage," Tanya Marie Breaud exhibits the style and emotive voice that weaves its poignant way through Words of Expression, her first published collection of verse.

"Hear me when I cry at night,

be Mother's arms that hold me tight.

Bring me up when I fall down,

Come to me when no one else is around. . .

Listen to the words that I speak,

give me courage when I'm scared and weak."

With inspiration continuously evolving from her personal experience, Ms. Breaud delights her readers with poetry that tugs at their heartstrings while wringing out their disappointed, wet washcloths of heartache. From high-spirited enthusiasm to sad, distressing loneliness, these poems run the gamut of truth, longing, forgiveness, faith, and hope. Readers will surely find solace in this poet's words, as well as the reassuring momentum to keep going in life, despite the obstacles placed before them.

In true spiritual observance, Tanya Marie Breaud confides in the Introduction to her book, "All the chances I never took, I'm now taking. For the longest time I have searched for a way to express myself. I finally found my way through Words of Expression."

It is her hope that her readers will, too!
