TESTIMONIALS:

Too many times we forget to uplift the men in our lives; we forget to give them the positive reinforcements that they deserve. If I Decide To Fly!, by Marina is a collection of poems that does just that, uplift the spirit of African American men. -- Jennifer Coissiere APOOO BookClub - Five Stars – Amazon.com

 At a time when African-American men are subject to a variety of negative images throughout our society, Marina's, If I Decide to Fly!, is a much-needed ray of hope for all of us. Her unconditional love and appreciation for her subject shine through in every poem and her words inspire rather than critique. The volume is hardly one-dimensional, however. Even if you are not an African-American male (which I am not), the words of poems like "If I Decide to Fly!" or "I'm Not Confused About Life At All!" still speak to you. This is a masterful volume and it should be read by everyone. -- Mark Kelso, Associate Professor of Political Science - Queens University of Charlotte 

Reading poem after poem the content touches your heart, and I believe this is a book that everyone should read. The poetry is positive and encouraging written by a strong woman celebrating a strong, black man! -- (O.O.S.A. Online Book Club - rating 5 stars)
