This is an uplifting and inspirational collection of poems. These rhymes come from my heart, throughout the good and bad times I experienced. I believe many of my readers and fans can relate to the poems I have written. Additionally, ten percent of each purchase will benefit the Laugh at Cancer Organization.

This is a wonderful collection, of poems that you can tell came right from the authors heart. I look forward to other book in the future from author Crystal Kauffman.
POETIC REFLECTIONS OF LIFE Rhymes of the Heart is a delightful collection of poetry which reflects the gentle soul of Crystal S. Kauffman. I purchased the published paperback version and was very happy to know that a portion of the proceeds will help to fund the “Laugh at Cancer Organization” registered in Florida which Ms. Kauffman founded and which provides friendship and emotional support to anyone who has been touched by cancer directly or indirectly. The same is true if you choose to purchase the e-book version. Ms. Kauffman is herself a courageous cancer survivor. The printed book itself is beautiful. It is a sturdy ring-bound book with covers so shiny you can see your reflection in them and elegant cream colored thick pages within that are soft and smooth to the touch. The softly colored angelic cherubs and heart wreath on the first page warm the heart, and the little splash of color in the narrow page dividers under each poem are a rainbow of color therapy for the nerves.... More > There isn’t any mysterious symbolism in these poems. They are as straightforward as the lovely simplicity of the cover art. These poems cover the entire spectrum of human emotions from sublime joy to heartrending tragedy including introspection and even fear of death. Throughout them all, though, is an unwavering Christian faith and ultimate positive outlook on life with all that it has to offer—both the good and the bad. The theme seemed to me to be, “Endure to the end, but don’t forget to enjoy the process!” I enjoyed every one of these poems. They left me with very positive feelings, and it was nice to see emotions that all of us feel at some point turned into poetry. Take her poetry collection for a test-drive and read the free preview of it. If you enjoy deep poetry with multiple meanings that you must think hard to figure out, Ms. Kauffman’s poetry might not be for you. However, if you want to take a break with light easy-to-read-and-understand poetry that will validate everything you have ever felt during your own life’s journey with all of its challenges, then I think that you will enjoy this volume.
