Facets of a Sapphire

A narrative poet from the Northwest, Kopp's writing experience spans thirty years. Her work incorporates humor and sharp visual images.

"Kopp certainly knows how to take a piece of her life, relate it to others, make it interesting with feelings, and then close it with a passion. . ." ―Jerry W. Engler, Just Folks volumes I, II, and III "Kopp's poetry gives good allegory of the gemstone as compared to real personal values." "Very creative and gifted thoughts. Lovely and deeply meaningful poetry . . . haunting, tearing at the heart." ―Jerry W. Engler, Just Folks volumes I, II, and III "It takes one accomplished poet to write It's a Heavy Life." ―Gene Williamson, Chesapeake Conflict, The Troublesome Early Days of Maryland Kopp's poems create "mysterious circles on the landscape where meaning and sympathy are born." ―Fr.Hugh Feiss, Monastery of the Ascension, Jerome, Idaho, Essential Monastic Wisdom, Writings on the Contemplative Life Please check manuscript>supplied for correctly formatted cover copy.
