Laughter, Lost and Love
Selected by jencross
Description

This is my poetry Anthlogy for my English 223 class. This is a collection of my personal favourite poems. These poems about about certain things my family has gone through, many laughs but unfortunately many hard times. Many of these poems focus around the personality of my mother. She is the rock of my family and my biggest idol.
