The Art of Healing
The Art of Healing is a poem I wrote about my healing journey. Writing poetry has helped me to get the thoughts out of head and on to paper. Then I decided that it was time for my poetry to become songs and I started writing songs. There is great power in music and music is the universal language that can touch everyone who is willing to listen.I hope that you like this song. If you like this poem, there are several more here on my Soundcloud account, YouTube channel and in the 13 books I have published.
