Diving Into Emoceans

June 12, 2004 -- Born in San Luis Obispo, Calif., Ina Goodling has been writing stories and poetry since the age of seven. She also enjoys painting, drawing, reading, and raising pet rats.

Her first collection of poems, "Emoceans," does just what the title implies, blending a word pool of rhyme and verse with a range of powerful emotions. Her poetry covers a wide spectrum, from whimsical and humorous to poignant and provocative.From worldly visions to deeply introspective prose, Goodling paints a vibrant picture on every page of this book.

"Write me a poem of good things
Things that are golden to write
Sing me a sonnet of butterfly’s wings
Wings that are fresh in their flight

Send me a message on moonbeams
That I can read in the dark
Paint me a picture from out of a dream
A blaze from out of a spark

Give me the gift of a strong helping hand
Come to my side and I’ll help you stand
Don’t stray away
I need you right here
Give me today
And I’ll make it a year."
