Matters of the heart can be so overwhelming that one can easily lose one’s emotional balance. It is natural, and it isn’t a crime at all. However, if one has to be as effective as possible, one needs to strike a balance between emotions and the message. In this collection of poems, Dudu takes us through many different aspects of her faith and life experiences. It’s all so very sincere, so very much from the heart. But she manages to share her feelings in a well-controlled voice. She talks to the reader as if she is talking to an old friend, whiling away time while waiting for the bus.The poetry is deeply philosophical, yet so easily accessible.
