Vogue 3 - Robinson, Vogue

. .

Résumé :
Vogue 3:16 takes you on a spiritual journey of self-discovery. The pieces envelop you and express profound emotions so eloquently. Words have power and this poet has chosen to anoint hers with love, appreciation, and wisdom. Her words come alive as you read and you feel like you're experiencing your own private performance. This book of poetry is easy to pick up, but difficult to put down. Vogue Robinson is a poet on the rise. -Adeyinka Glover, Esq. I do not share this poet's background, yet I find something in each of her pieces that I can relate to. And don't let Robinson's apparent un-pretentiousness mislead you into thinking her poems are simplistic. The opposite is true, and this is her genius. It takes great courage to write & share one's reality, and great skill to paint a portrait of oneself with words. -Leslie H. Beautifully written. Soulful, candid, and warm. This book of poetry puts words to paper the way Mama cooks. No measurements, no recipes, does so with a knowledge that surpasses what is taught in school and to a method all her own. A body of work that can never be emulated because you won't be able to get it to taste just right. A beautiful spirit is transfixed within these pages. Only by reading it, do you feel this divine presence. Written for a spectrum of women, from most every facet of life. We all have been that young girl, that young lady, and aspire to be that woman in some form or fashion. Open your eyes to allow this wonderful voice in. With every page you are moved. Allow yourself to experience an earthquake, you won't be the only one who felt it. -Shea Ellis, Writer and Educator Vogue 3:16 is similar to reading a biography and a Bible wrapped into one. The poetry is so full of her life and essence that when you read it, you hear her reciting it inside your head (even if you've never met her). It is also an emotional roller coaster, and even if you hate roller coasters, you want to ride this one. From her first line to her last she takes you to a place so beautiful that she inspires you to become more. I laughed, cried, and felt at home reading her poetry. She is an amazing writer. Vogue 3:16 is her introduction to you and is a hug that lasts a second too long, but you don't mind. - Ami Rebecca Meyers, Avid Book Reader Vogue 3:16 is an elaborate metaphor that transcends all aspects of Vogue Robinson's personality. -Brianna N. Bennett, M. P. A....
