Meet Dezarita Dashai
For over two decades, Dezarita Dashai has been turning pain into poetry, stories into movements, and words into healing. Rooted in Corsicana, Texas, Dezarita is a multi-faceted creative force — an award-winning author, spoken word artist, poet, and educator whose work has moved audiences across the country.
Her writing spans the full spectrum of the human experience: the tender innocence of childhood in Granny Says…The First Day of Kindergarten, the ache of grief and resilience in Whispers of a Widowed Warrior, and the raw, unapologetic truth of womanhood in Her Thoughts and From Rags to Riches.
Dezarita doesn't just write books — she creates experiences. Whether she's performing at a live event, leading Circle Time for young readers, or crafting a custom poem for someone's most sacred moment, she brings her whole heart to every word.
What Dezarita Offers:
-
Children's books that spark imagination and comfort young readers
-
Poetry collections that validate the full range of emotion
-
Spoken word performances for events, schools, and ceremonies
-
Custom poetry for weddings, memorials, birthdays, and milestones

Circle Time sessions — live storytelling and reading experiences for kids
Dezarita's work has been featured in The Literary Gazette and the San Francisco Times, and her community knows her simply as Mz. Dezy — a name that carries warmth, wisdom, and the unmistakable feeling that someone truly sees you.
