Is it, sophisticated eloquence, providing articulate angles, illustrating the invisible? Is poetic excellence the ability to brighten your day with words, lift you from the depths of sorrow, add joy to a joyful moment, cause you to pause, ponder, and peruse on a reflection that had wandered from the repository of your mind? One may wonder and search for that elusive word or phrase that best depicts poetic excellence. However, I am never at a loss for one that epitomizes, personifies and encompasses the essence of poetic excellence.
Poetic excellence for me has been exemplified in the poetic works of Ladalia Postell. She has been able to captivate and arrest my thinking, soothe my sorrow, and dispel my doubt with her prudent prose. I have been blessed by the writings, “An Anointed Servant of God”, “Her Journey Home”, and many other poems that have encouraged me to continue to pursue my purpose in life.
You will certainly enjoy this rich assortment of poetic works. There is a guarantee that comes with the reading of Ladalia Postell’s poetry; you will be blessed, enlightened, encouraged, and you will never be in search of poetic excellence again.

Ms. Postell’s poetry reflects her deep faith and her strong commitment to people in her work and life. There is poetry in her caring for people at the hospital and in the way she shares and lives her faith. Her poetry, her faith, and her work, all are interwoven. Ladalia is a blessing to me and to all with whom she comes in contact.
