About this ebook
Leigh Jeffery
Having been an avid reader and writer for most of her life, this is Leigh's first published work. She is a proud mum and nanny who enjoys crafts, knitting, sewing and puzzles but not cooking. She likes nature, peace, quiet and solitude but not the fast-paced buzz of modern technology. She is the tortoise, not the hare.

Discovery
Yesterday was a normal day.
Today, not so
For it is a turn-your-world-upside-down day.
I am clean, damp and warm
Water drips from my hair, I smell of jasmine flowers
And a step was all it took.
Out from the shower
To in front of the mirror
Where I saw something I didn’t want to see.
Stare, peer, look again.
I blinked but I was not blinkered
So it did not go away.
Tentatively, my hand rose up
To touch this shadow place
