When asked to edit this great literary work of Poet Jahne Jahmal Westmoreland-EL, I did not take it lightly. I graciously accepted and found it to be exactly as I had thought it would be; the work of a great artist. I have known Jahmal for more that twelve years and have discovered that he is wise beyond his years, highly intelligent and deeply concerned about people. I did not hesitate when I was asked to edit this project because it gave me the rare an unusual opportunity to be the second person to read this mind, soul, and body stirring poetry, before other people in the world got their hands on it... Sincerely, GiGi Tinsley M. Theo M. psych.Editor, Publisher, and Writer This book was written to educate, build character, spiritually enrich its’ readers, and in a nutshell provide pertinent information to assist others in preparation for the New Age, which is to commence on 2012. Also, this book was written to raise the awareness of men and women of the African Diaspora, of the age old African Matriarchal/Matrilineal custom. For such was the basis of Ancient African society. A Greater reception of the African woman wherever she might be on the Earth’s stage, is imperative that we have if we are to ever move forward as a people. In African traditional society when we speak of matriarchal rule we are speaking of a reality whereby the woman was the landowner, the elector of officials, keeper of the royalty, and guardian of the purity of the lineage, she as a woman had synonymity with wisdom. This is the kind of reception of African women that needs to return I’m saying if we are to forward as a people.

    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding.

    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular.
