About author: Debra Warren

Debra Warren

I was married for over twenty years before I divorced, dated again, and eventually remarried. I learned so much about myself! I became aware of the many levels of love. I learned about betrayal, the importance of family, and friendship. Before I was forty-five years old, my parents passed on within five years of each other. I learned about deep sorrow. And from my children, I learned about unconditional love. I have become very insightful along my journey through life. Through my poetry, I've tried to convey all the wisdom I've gained. "When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened before us. - Helen Keller"
