I am Leah: Poems and Art

Leah Keith has won the Allen Ginsberg Award for outstanding poetry through the VSA of RI three times and she was chosen to represent them as their Poet Laureate for the past three years. As the Poet Laureate she has been given themes to write about and read her poems at certain events such as the celebration of the 25th Anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act at the Pawtucket Rhode Island Town Hall. Leah has a voice and she wants you to know it. She wants you to hear her before you decide who she is. She wants you to see her and take the time to get to know her before you think you already do. She will surprise you with her unique wisdom and colorful sense of humor. She is not what you expect her to be. She is proud of who she Is and she makes no apologies for it. In this book Leah uses her voice in the form of poetry and art.
