Please keep my secrets very safe

by Lihi Ben Haim

"The writing will make you think the author knows you or some part of you"- Gabrielo Banks**************************"Renders the reader with a metaphysical sense of protection, somewhat angelic.""A mixed feeling of both friendship and admiration is expressed through content and completion.""It has been a pleasure for me to read and analyze this short emotional and intellectual aperitif of poetry." - Anonymous poet**************************Each of the seven poems in this book is dedicated to a person, who will tell you something about themselves and about others. The people are expecting something, and, at times, this may be something missing. They take big steps, fall and fly...do little things, smell lemon tea and meatballs. They keep secrets, and sometimes, they share one.

About the author

I was born in Jerusalem in 1977 and have been living in Switzerland since 2009.
As a writer, painter, and self-employed teacher, I am very passionate about sharing and passing on creativity and writing and painting skills.
I have been writing for fun since childhood. Currently I am writing poetry and short stories.
For me, writing is about playing with words, letting them inspire ideas and allowing them to take me onto the next line. When I write, I forget about being smart or finding big, important issues to write about. I let any idea come, and find life on paper. That is my way of creating big ideas: people, places, and concepts.
My love for the written word has its roots both in the academic world and in creativity. I am a graduate of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, holding a M.A in Hebrew Literature, and I am also a professional editor.
Join me and find inspiration in my blog. You are welcome to write with me. Playing with words is fun. http://writepoetryandplay.blogspot.ch/.

[Crissi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Lihi offers a short collection of her poetry, teasing the reader with detailed stares into a momentary glance upon life. Her poetry takes a walk on the surface of the situation, but reveals glimpses into what's really going on underneath. Each poem seemed to trend on wistfulness, but in a beautiful way. I do hope Lihi will consider putting together a longer collection of her prose.
