My name is Esther Ouellette, I am originally from New York and have lived in Tennessee for the last sixteen years. Recently married this year (2005), I still reside in Tennessee with my new husband and my daughter. I come from a family of four brothers and one sister. I am the second to the youngest of the six of us. Poetry has been a passion for me since I was very young. I started writing around the age of twelve and have not stopped. I realized the pleasure it gave me when I would write something to give to a friend or a family member and it would bring a smile to their face. I have always expressed myself in words whether it is about love, death, friends or family. My father had a dream for me. That dream was that I would use the talent inside me and make a book or write an article. I never once thought he was serious, but after his death in 2001, I finally submitted a poem that I wrote about him, and it was published. Since that time, I have never thought of completing a whole book, until recently. Remembering the words of my dad and all the dreams he had for me is the reason I am writing this today. I hope that everyone that reads this will find inspiration and love through the words in these pages to follow. Thank you, Dad, for helping me to understand my talent, follow my dream, and to have the courage to finally DO IT I love you. In Dry Tears you will read about family, friends, children, love, death and hardship. Each one of these poems represents a time in my life, and it is expressed through these words. Most people experience these same stepping-stones through their life and will relate to the following writings.
