Hello! My Name is Bernice Angoh, Author of Lemonade Street
Praise For Lemonade Street
"WOW!I really don't know where to begin..."Lemonade Street" written by Bernice Angoh is truly a masterpiece. As an artist paints a mural Ms.Angoh paints beautiful words into poetry.They are touching, enlightening,humorous,beautiful,moving and quite powerful. I really like Bernice Angoh's style in writing in Lemonade Street. My favorite poems were most definitely "Gorgeous One"...It's about heartbreak and I liked her little antidote that she put at the end of her poem...she writes...."Just think of it this way every time someone breaks your heart they shift the pieces more apart,that way your heart expands and can contain the next big love to come".Another poem I really liked alot is "All I Want". Bernice just seems to know exactly what to say. I think there is something for everyone here in this book. I felt my eyes moisten several times while reading Bernice's poems.They are from the heart and quite beautiful.This book is definitely a must have and if I could give it 10 stars I would!!
Bernice much success to you in the future.You have a wonderful career ahead of you!!"

"A 5*****Collection! I stayed up late to finish this book. I couldn't put it down. 'Lemonade Street' is an excellent collection of Poetry. It seems that the author, Bernice Angoh, has had the talent of arranging poems since early in her teens. She has a clear purpose, great understanding and a beautiful touch of elegance in her delivery. There were many poems I liked and I admire the depth and maturity the collection has about life and living. Among the poems are some hints of humor, like the one above. I will recommend this Poetry collection to everyone. It is not just for poetry buffs but also for the everyday reader who can enjoy some of life's pleasures; poetry. I treasured the time I spent reading this book. With that, I'd like to leave you with one of the author's life quotes:
'There is a time for sowing, a time for growing and eventually a time for harvest. No matter how much you want to rush things, you can never defeat the Universal laws of nature. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.' "
-Julia Johnson, Author of Jewels Treasured By Her Family
Review for Lemonade Street By Bernice Angoh
"Bernice Angoh is a brilliant author who has quite a remarkable way with words. Her poetry is layered with her love experiences. Ranging from her love lost, her unrequited love and the most passionate love declarations anyone could hope to receive. Reading her poetry I get the feeling that I've yet to share the love that she's experienced. Yet her gift of expressing her inner most feelings leaves me feeling that somehow I have. The life experiences shared in her poetry aren't limited to romantic love but also compassion for her loved ones. Anyone who's willing to partake of her poetry can learn from the wisdom that she's acquired in her life.
This lady's poetry has been a pleasant surprise. Her wisdom is evident in poems such as "Complete Me" and "Secret of Life". With other examples such as "Gorgeous One", "For Daddy", "Unrequited Love" and "To Love or Not to Love" speak for all that are courageous enough to love. And still yet her flare, her style, her poetic genius shine through in other personal favorites "Stop the World" and "You and I".
Ms. Angoh I anxiously await your first collection of poetry,
"Lemonade Street". May you have great success in all your endeavors and please don't stop sharing your love."
M. Kenneth Coleman
Review for Lemonade Street by Bernice Angoh
"Bernice Angoh speaks clearly through her words. Her words are tender, loving and kind. "Lemonade Street" has opened the author's heart and she allows us to see that. For any poetry lover, this book is a wonderful addition to add to your library. This book is a resonant and every poem meaningful. There is passion and depth in this talented writer's poems, which takes the reader on a journey through life and love.
My favorite poems in this beautiful and captivating collection of poetry are; "Follow Me", "Don't Let Go", "Till Death Do Us", "Cinderella, " Secrets", "I Miss You", and "Stay". Each poem reflects the Author's deeply felt sentiments that have touched her life and she writes straight from the heart and soul.
It's a delightful poetry collection by Bernice Angoh, and an excellent read. I give it five stars. If you are a poetry lover, you'll love "Lemonade Street "

Your choice of the metaphor 'pear tree' - having its sweet gritty textured juicy fruit - is satisfying in light of the strong evidence of your unwavering faith in Jesus Christ woven deliciously throughout your thoughts.
'For me to live is Christ, but to die is gain' is, to me, the marvelous light that permeates this write. Well done!
