In this, her second anthology, Mary Ann has again demonstrated her uncanny ability to capture her experiences in prose. She has a knack of being able to translate complex emotions into word pictures that reveal the depth of her understanding of the events and people who shaped them. It is a privilege to work with Mary Ann and to support her on this part of her journey of discovery. — Steven McInnes, Director, Human Capital International Thank you Mary Ann for sharing another collection of your wonderful poems. I feel the trepidation, curiosity, wonder, gratitude and tension of your journey in these poems. Most importantly I feel the learning to be at ease with risk….powerful. — Sharyn Morton, Senior Human Resources Advisor, CSIRO
