I

I

your
shores
Nancy Allen tonight.
June 13, 2009
My name is Nancy Allen. I started writing poetry in the fall of 2006. I started a common journal at Eve’s House in Lansing, MI to offer words of encouragement, hope, and healing for women who are survivors of domestic violence. Our words are like fireflies in the night. When things seem the darkest, one word of hope can light up our lives just as the firefly lights up the night. May our words bring strength, beauty and hope for a brighter tomorrow…Nancy
