Luvleeh Poetiklocks
"My vision is to manifest a connection through poetry and visual art with the world. Poetry and art heal - and I believe whole heartedly in using it to heal myself and others. This journey has been one many would not wish to endure, but it has taught me so much about myself. The power of forgiveness, the beauty of manifestation, setting my intentions and working through God/Spirit to grow and reach others. This is my Luvleeh Experience- my Beautiful After Dark... I am Luvleeh. I am Light. I am Joy. I am Love. I am Peace. My life's mission to to share that with people who may have forgotten that they too are worthy. "
- Leandrea "Luvleeh Poetiklocks" Hill
