Passionate & Proud Poems 2025; Written and Designed by Gisele Marasca Published by Passionate & Proud Publishing DESCRIPTION: Drawing on her empath's sensitivity, impassioned voice and a commitment to authenticity, Gisele Marasca crafts poems that resonate with emotional clarity and bold truths, moving fluidly between vulnerability and strength. Each piece is a lovingly shaped reflection on identity, belonging, and empowerment-an intimate celebration of living fully and without apology. "Introspection, love and loss, the environment, spiritual awareness and being, observations of life, Gisele Marasca layers imagery with perspective, what is significant with the insignificant. She gives us sketches of herself and the world around her in a honest and clear expression—the pain and the joy, but leaving one with a hopeful heart. Reflecting on the entire book, I think her honesty can be hard to read at times, but in a very good way—moving the reader. She says, 'I Know Your Heart.' I believe you will sense that she does, and you will know hers; this a worthy read." --Mark Andrew James Terry, editor for Of Poets & Poetry and President of Florida State Poets Association |
