Shadows And Substance is a book of poetry that defines the author’s life from her teen age years to the present. It is poetry that readers can identify with, perhaps by catching a glimpse of their own hidden melodies.
Released June 2007 by Ruth Barnaby.

From Shadows and Substance
From the poem:

OUTLOOK

The Universe is a
Symphony of clear
And challenging music

Who among us
Seeks to target
Their lives

To anything
But one small
Familiar note
