In her poetry collection, "The Healing Leaf," author Pamela Moorehead expresses her life experiences through a search for words with healing value. Her poetry explores interests in humanity's internal struggles, including humans' abilities to tell the truth, let go of poisonous attitudes and emotions, and learn to listen to their intuitive voices. In poems like "Murder in the First" and "The Wheels Go Around," Moorehead invokes strong feelings and philosophies about living an open life that seek to inspire the need to think, write, reflect, and meditate. There are moments when attitudes and emotions, whether positive or negative, bring freedom, like a caterpillar shedding its cocoon to become a beautiful butterfly; Moorehead's poetry is driven by the need to reveal these life-altering, energizing moments. "Better Understanding There is a strain in my heart for humanity We speak with our tongues as how view insanity Turn around and the actions are not noble gestures Violence sex drugs and alcohol are our pleasures Somehow mankind cannot get it together Now I cannot say that I am perfect The things I learned as a child in our time Was truly worth it If we have become honest about loving And living Bullying from every perpetrator would disintegrate into nothing ..." | The Healing Leaf by Pamela Moorehead Msc D, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
