Nicole Gillespie is the Author of two Amazing poetry books Transparent Moments and Mirror’s Reflections. Which has a five star rating on amazon with ravening reviews and has landed her as a Best Author finalist for the 4th annual People Choice Awards of Kansas City! She was born and raised in Kansas City Mo. Although she is a City girl, it’s just something country about her. For example, she love wide open spaces, gardening, fishing, long nature walks while looking for fruit trees, with shoes off. Gazing at the stars and cooking big ole soul food Sunday dinners for her 3 children. As well as, her three grandchildren Shi’yaire 13, Shi’lah 11 and Sean aka Hercules 9. These 3 are the absolute loves of her life, her riders and her fountains of youth.
Nicole love for words was molded by her mother at a very earlier age. Let me explain, if her or her siblings would ask how to pronounce a word or its meaning. Her mom would say go look the word and its meaning up! Then come back and tell me its definition and pronunciation. Which gave Nicole such intrigue of words, laying the foundation for future events. Such as, her love of metaphors that she often use to convey how she is feeling thru her poetry. She show no shame as a very deep emotional writer/ poet. Nicole often says, if a person reading my soul can read between its lines, then they get me. The language of the soul has its own colloquial form (mother tongue) and only the ones that can understands its accent can relate!!
