About Chocolate Poetry Therapy

I can’t remember exactly when I started writing. I feel like I’ve been writing forever. My first recollection is of writing long letters to my grandparents. Then as a teenager, putting words on paper helped me in my investigation into the meaning of life. Later, writing allowed me to see things differently… and finally, I decided to write just for fun. My writing took the form of cinematographic stories, screenplays, to make people laugh and think. The work took a long time to complete and to transform all of the pages into a film was even longer, if not eternal. Then somehow, during the confinement, poems appeared on my pages.

Each poem was addressed to someone special and provoked positive emotions, sometimes an unexpected abundancy thereof. These reactions made me feel, for the first time, how words are the truest and most beautiful of gifts that one can receive (and give).

I wish you the most wonderful of words and thank you for your visit.
