Book Description
I chose the title “A Poemers’ Poemerings” because it means (for me), that of someone to whom is always writing, about something, anything, and its odd and catchy at the same time, and it’s the main title for the series that I am writing in volumes, too many to put all into one book. I think of my poems, “all”, as individual artworks, all their own, a completeness – from start to finish, a journey, a path, a message that will inspire, mesmerize, intrigue, and take you to that deepness that hasn’t been felt or known of your own self. Allow yourself to think for out there to see what each one is telling you! Envision the poem and let yourself see the answers to your own thoughts of these pieces of artworks.

Book Description
After hitting it big with Momma's Baby, Daddy's Maybe, national bestselling author Jamise L. Dames is back with another hip, sensual, and compelling novel. A Tragic Past... Daisy Parker's boyfriend has strayed one too many times and she's no longer sitting pretty. Having sacrificed seven years of her life to being his faithful woman and raising his nine-year-old son, the only thing that will calm her now is to hurl his beloved wardrobe out their second-story window. Single life may scare Daisy, but her mind is made up -- when the good-for-nothing returns, she'll serve him his walking papers. Only he isn't up to his old tricks that night, and what goes down strips Daisy of the option to choose. She's on her own. ...A Hopeful Future Left penniless, homeless, and jobless, Daisy struggles to make a home for herself and her son. Just when she seems poised to take control and put the baggage of her past behind her, complications arise when the towering frame of Daisy's deliciously handsome college crush strolls into town. His unexpected attention makes her feel alive, yet she's been burned by love once and isn't sure she can take the heat. As undeniable passions rise, so do the stakes, and Daisy can't stand to lose another round.... A compelling tale of life, love, and hope.

Book Description
The “refreshing . . . laugh-out-loud” #1 New York Times bestseller about life in the suburbs that was adapted into a classic film comedy (Kirkus Reviews). One day, Tony Award–winning playwright Jean Kerr packed up her four kids (and husband, Walter, one of Broadway’s sharpest critics), and left New York City. They moved to a faraway part of the world that promised a grassy utopia where daisies grew wild and homes were described as neo-gingerbread. In this collection of “wryly observant” essays, Kerr chronicles her new life in this strange land called Larchmont (TheWashington Post). It sounds like bliss—no more cramped apartments and nightmarish after-theater cocktail parties where the martinis were never dry enough. Now she has her very own washer/dryer, a garden, choice seats at the hottest new third-grade school plays (low overhead but they’ll never recoup their losses), and a fresh new kind of lunacy. In Please Don’t Eat the Daisies “Jean Kerr cooks with laughing gas” as she explores the everyday absurdities, anxieties, and joys of marriage, family, friends, home decorating, and maintaining a career—but this time with a garage! (Time).

Book Description
Daisies at Dawn is a collection of poetry about different emotions; from feeling hopeful, sad, fearful to overwhelming anxiety. About the experience of sadness, heartbreak, healing and love. The book is divided into seven chapters, and each chapter serves a different purpose. Daisies at Dawn takes readers through a journey of bittersweet moments in life and finds a chance of new beginning if you have faith and hope. Their petals may have wilted, their stems may not stand as tall, their leaves may have fallen off, and they may not be picked from the garden. But daisies bloom at dawn, and each time when the sky cries. They remind me that beauty is present, in all creations that exist, in difference and in imperfection. They remind me of hopes and new beginnings, and sprinkle happiness in my life.

Book Description
A tale of love, lust, and mistrust, Momma's Baby, Daddy's Maybe reveals the secrets that break homes as well as hearts. The Jacobs's siblings have done a good job of masking their secrets behind finely wrought facades, hidden agendas, and questionable paternity...until the day it all starts to unravel. Faced at last with the truth, Kennedy, Simone, and Derrick Jacobs find themselves vulnerable and exposed, determined to salvage the lives they have made for themselves. Kennedy Jacobs has it all: beauty, brains, and the confidence to match. She also has the man that sister Simone has officially declared off-limits. With sass, class, and strength to spare, Kennedy takes the world by storm—until tragedy jumps up and slaps her in the face. Simone Jacobs wants it all. She has the expensive home, the VP position at a top accounting firm, and a new man who tickles more than her fancy. But something is missing. Just when it seems that this something is within reach and her life is coming together, someone starts to tear it apart at the seams. Derrick Jacobs is a handsome Wall Street exec, a fully equipped ladies' man who can't be tied down by any woman. With charming good looks, a chiseled body, and a very healthy bank account, Derrick Jacobs can move mountains...but will his secrets cause them to crumble? Passions run high as the Jacobs try desperately to untangle themselves from a web of deceit and learn how tragedy can move toward truth and the strongest of all ties.
