Pilgrimage to Self: Leaving, Walking, Returning

"Wendi Romero paints word pictures with a delicate touch and discipline
of phrase. She reminds us of places that we have never visited, and yet
we know intimately in our own hearts."

-Lyn Holley Doucet, author of Healing Troubled Hearts, When Women Pray

"As we walk, we listen to our hearts. Thoughts flash with clarity. Hidden
Insights molded by our soul, arise. Sometimes the knowing cannot be put
into words. Our heart dances, our eyes are bright, and our feet hurt. What
we suddenly come to know unfolds in the gentle silence. Sometimes we
find expression in poetry, where we get hold of what we experienced, be-
tween the lines. When I read Wendi's poems, they make my heart smile
and I think . . . Yes, this is our journey."

-Gernot Candolini, international designer of labyrinths, photographer,
and author of Labyrinths, Walking Toward the Center.

"Pay attention to the magical, extraordinary beauty of everyday life
Pulsing in Wendi Romero's poetry. Threading rhythm, imagery, and
startling insight, she will awaken your human heart, moving you to
prayer and gratitude."

-Pegge Bernecker, author of Your Spiritual Garden: Tending to the
Presence of God

"Wendi's poetry is filled with depth and intricate lines. Her own journey,
so sizzling and veraciously alive, is an inspiring guide for one to shed
their baggage and let bare feet blend with their one and only precious life."
