pull up a chair, let's talk pull up a chair, let's talk is about life itself. i write about things from a woman's point of view. i also write about things that i have seen, been through, and felt, at the time of putting my poems in power, print, and voice. an idea would come to me and i would immediately jot it down without putting the idea off or waiting too long. there is nothing make believe, made up, or imaginary about my work. i like to keep real as it happens. life isn't easy so that's why i write about it . the things that i say could uplift any person or put a smile on their face that they've been putting off through depression. pull up a chair, let's talk was a joy for me to write and i hope one of my poems would bring joy to someone's life. what inspired me to write was my father for always being there for me, a lady named debra kay for her encouraging words to me that are priceless, and my favorite actress mo'nique who one day i would love to meet. without further ado first & foremost i thank god! all day, everyday for giving the hidden talent i did not know i had until i started to have problems myself. my favorite subject is english. p.s. i did say mo'nique the actress. i hope that i had said enough, no too much or not too little. this concludes the reason for pull up a chair, let's talk ms. mary dorian marshall
