Author Bio
Autumn-born poet, who hails from Slovenia, but has soon adopted the English language as a way of expressing her thoughts. She has been writing poems since a young age and that remains her passion till this day. Poems come to her, demanding their own style, without form or rhyme. They have been published on website pages under the pen name Natasek. Love for photography came years later, and is still present.
Description
Colours of the sea is a collection of poems that wrote themselves freely, especially when the mind was caught in between being awake and asleep. There was no need to use rhythm or rhyme, only images that evoke certain feelings. They could be labelled as human nature poetry, although diverse in nature. Poems are also accompanied by photographs of nature, focused on those little, hidden and abstract things. The book is divided into five chapters, each for every year, which could make it a poetry journal. A journal of emotions, images, thoughts and dreams.
Book excerpt
PREFACE
There is no precise beginning to this story. It doesn’t start as a dream. It doesn’t start as a job. It doesn’t start with school. Nor does it start with birth. There, however, was a step, an obvious one; but not all steps take you where you thought they would. What you can do, is surrender to them. May they take over your sentiments and as you swim deeper, you discover new thoughts and images. A story has always something to say; it may depend on your life’s experiences. Even the same story will have a different effect when you read it years later. The best you can do is not to read reviews or summaries. See it through your own eyes. Each poem carries various stories, patiently waiting to be revealed. Images accompany certain feelings and memories, displaying reality in our minds. And they are very flexible, like ripples on the surface of the sea.
