    About this ebook

    This book is a compilation of poems and letters covering years of writing what strikes me. Many times they are emotions I'm currently experiencing; however, there are some I've derived from watching someone close to me face one of life's many challenges.

    Debby Hoskins

    Debby Hoskins is a former Navy journalist who has been jotting down thoughts since she was 13. Some of these thoughts congealed into poems or letters, and others not so much. These thoughts encompass a number of life's challenges; growing upon a single-parent home, life in the military, relationships that develop, grow and sometimes die, and others. Debby is a former single mom of a little guy who is now a handsome young man serving our country. She married her husband, Steve, in 2006 and her family instantly exploded from one child to 6 children and introduced her to the joys of grandchildren.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Foreword

      I had the privilege of reading Debby’s collection of poems which reveal how honest and vulnerable she is and we should strive to be. Find a quiet place and enjoy.

      —Ned O’Connor

      There are a number of people who have influenced my life… this book is dedicated to a few of them:

      First and foremost, I want to thank God for allowing me to put words to paper. Without You, I am nothing, and with You, I am everything.

      To my husband, Steve, my support, cheerleader, confidante, lover and best friend. You’ve helped me come out of my shell, be stronger than ever, and made me feel as though I can do anything.

      To all my children and grandchildren. You have shown me what unconditional love really means, and I’m so very grateful to have you in my life.

      To Mom… who always made us
