Adrianna's poetry is a vibrant tapestry of words, weaving together threads of culture, history, and emotion in a way that captivates the senses. Its imagery and rhythm transport the reader to another time and place, evoking a deep sense of connection to the human experience. It left an impression, and I know it will leave one for her colleagues.

Adrianna’s poetry has always been a treat for me. She has a way of being so real in her work that allows other people to step into her story and find their own experiences through it. Reading one’s work is a personal experience. It reveals not just the message the poet was trying to give, but sheds light on the heart of the poet who wrote it. Adrianna should have the opportunity to not only express herself, but to share with her classmates a message that they can carry in their hearts and minds for that special moment in their lives.

If it takes a Village to raise our children. Then it's also important to hear their voices.

Adrianna is a passionate poet and we loved having her poem in our book, ODES OF US published by Writers' Loft Press.
