The author has been inspired by beauty, impressions and visions like ancient mystics. [Bible verses were added after the poems were writ-ten to compliment and confirm the spiritual truths]. Chapter titles include these topics: Poems of given or lost love, poems of issues, spiritual poems, poems of Trinity, poems about earth and heaven, poems of our family and beauty, poems of healing after deep pain, poems of divine messages. This book is a modern type of Pilgrim's Progress from a nurse, philosopher, traveler, reader, writer, actress, sing-er, minister,, missionary kid, pastor's kid, and believer in Creator God: Holy Trinity. The author has lived over 58 years. She dedicates her spiritual book of wis-dom to all the precious people who will read of her journey of loss and her deep faith.
