Aerle Taree wrote her bestselling collection of poetry PoeTaree: The Jurisprudence of Life as her lifestyle body of work. She now presents this second edition as her final body of work.
Her new anthology PoeTaree: The Infrastructure of Union represents a continuation of the poet’s views on life, in which she encourages you to expand your mind and lift your soul.
From her poem “Lady Luck:”
I stand here waiting
Luck B a lady … and give me mental health
Options make me crazy
Yet stagnance leads to lazy
Luck B my lady… and give me since of self.
