My name is Dawn. I love poetry. I’ve been writing poetry since I was 5. I have my Ph.D in Pastoral Community Counseling and I am a Mental Heath Professional. I have been in the mental health field for 30 years. I love helping people. Helping people has always been my passion. In life, we usually have one passion but I have 2…poetry and mental health. I’ve always seen poetry writing as being very therapeutic. My favorite poets are Edgar Allen Poe, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, Maya Angelou, E. E. Cummings, Shel Silverstein and many more.
