Some books speak to the mind, while others breathe directly into the soul. Rhyming Dreams by Nicole Sara is one of those rare treasures. A delicate turquoise volume that radiates light, poetry, and warmth on every page.
What makes this collection so enchanting is its harmony of elements. Each poem is accompanied by Nicole’s own photography, tenderly chosen to mirror the essence of her words, and prefaced with mottoes from other writers, creating a layered dialogue between text, image, and inspiration. The result is not just a poetry book, but a luminous experience that feels almost like stepping into a gallery of emotions, memories, and reveries.
Nicole’s poetry is deeply rooted in nature, and through her verses, she draws us closer to the eternal connection between the natural world and the human heart. Her words bring breezes of peace, beams of sunshine, and the gentle hum of song. There is an optimism that dances through the lines: subtle, graceful, yet powerful enough to remind us of resilience, beauty, and the quiet joys that colour our days.
What also stands out is the author’s self-publishing journey. Rhyming Dreams was born through patience, dedication, and sheer creative will. Nicole has crafted something remarkable: 42 poems first written and translated into English between 2016 and 2017, now adorned with vintage-tinted images that lend the book a soft, timeless charm. Holding the paperback, as she describes, feels like having a velvety spark of turquoise magic.
Reading Rhyming Dreams is like taking a gentle walk through sunlit meadows and shaded paths, with Nicole as your guide: her voice hopeful, tender, and imbued with gratitude. It is a collection that whispers comfort to the weary and offers joy to the optimistic.
A radiant collection that nourishes both heart and soul, reminding us of the timeless harmony between nature and our inner being.
If you’re seeking poetry that feels like a breath of fresh air, uplifting, intimate, and visually beautiful, I wholeheartedly recommend wandering through Rhyming Dreams. It’s not just a book to read, but one to treasure.
If you’re searching for a poetry collection that brings serenity, optimism, and a touch of wonder to your days, I wholeheartedly encourage you to pick up Rhyming Dreams by Nicole Sara. Each page weaves words, images, and mottoes into a tender harmony, offering readers poems on a full sensory journey.
