Nature—an all-encompassing awareness, sought by the few who understand the truth it brings, and quenched by those who slumber in the midst of it. An awakening of the heart is where knowledge begins.
In the Garden draws the reader closer to the eternal perfection of Nature.
Each whisper— the wind's caress
Absorb the message release it to the world
A silk thread— woven in strength
(Silk, page 60)
​ In this thoughtfully composed poetry collection, Barrette shows us there is ease, purpose, and comfort to be found in nature, no matter how chaotic life gets. Whether considering the thaw of spring or the falling autumn leaves, these poems remind us not only of the wonder and beauty of Nature, but of how it always takes its time, trusting its own process. In the Garden reminds us we, too, are a part of this Creation— to find purpose and oneness, we need only remember what our hearts have known all along.​

Like a gentle rain falling on parched earth, this is poetry to nourish the soul. As We Are Creation brings together reflections on the natural world and our inner reality to reveal the spiritual essence of existence. As Barrette relates in "Your Gift,"
​Truth in its pure form, a quiet lesson brought
In opening a heart to gratitude, the message given—
Creation's gift
​The poetry in this collection discovers pure truth in the energetic ebb and flow of life; in the flowing quality of sunlight; in the cracks of strong tree bark and the hues of a fluttering dragonfly. Written from a place of complete gratitude and reverence towards Creation, Barrette's poems encourage us to be present, to be curious, to wonder: to celebrate the world around and within us, and to understand ourselves as part of Creation's plan.

Our Words is eighty-two poems that speak of the beauty of creation and our place in the heart of it. Amidst the rush of everyday living it can be hard to find peace; Our Words offers the reader a place to do so, a haven where they can feel the beauty of "solid oak roots woven in earth" and be woven, themselves, back into the rhythms of moon, tides, seasons, and sunrises. Throughout the volume, Barrette reminds us that "We are one."
Our Words is a treasure trove for anyone who wishes to begin their day with gentleness and walk through it with a sense of wonderment and appreciation.
