I love writing poetry, but I enjoy quilting even more.
Often my poetry comes to me while I'm sitting quietly and quilting, and is jotted down on my scratch pad for later entry on the computer.

You are not alone.  We all have questions, doubts, and fears which try to weaken our faith. 

No matter where you may be on your particular life path, or what problems you are facing, you are not alone.  Someone else has faced the same or similar challenges. 

You CAN make it through the storm and walk into the light again with renewed hope and faith.

Book Review:

Joni & Ken: An Untold Love Story
by Ken & Joni Eareckson Tada

This is the true love story of Joni and her husband of 30 years, Ken Tada. A love story showing what it truly means for a man and a woman to live in love… in sickness and in health.   Even the honeymoon wasn’t easy. Did Ken realize what he was getting into when he proposed to Joni, a quadriplegic woman? As their marriage years moved on, Ken became increasingly overwhelmed by the never-ceasing demands of caring for Joni, who begins to experience chronic, extreme, nightmarish pain. Ken sinks into depression, and the couple finds themselves on parallel tracks in life, married and living under the same roof but drifting apart emotionally.  But as they fight for their marriage and find their way through the mazes of depression and pain, they wrap their two lives around their rock – Jesus.  During Ken’s denial of Joni’s diagnosis, and Joni’s thoughts of how wonderful a quick exit to heaven would be, they experience a personal visitation with the savior you will never forget.

"All There Is"

A collection of all the spiritual and inspirational poetry from all of my previous books along with many new poems written in 2012.

This book was put together for all those friends who have asked to have only those poems in a book instead of some spiritual and some secular as in each of my other books.

Available now at Amazon.com
"Idle Thoughts"

The poems in "Idle Thoughts" are presented with special thanks to the Poem of the Day Yahoo group where George Smith helps get our creative juices flowing each April and November by sharing daily poetry prompts from Robert Lee Brewer's Poetic Asides blog
      (http://blog.writersdigest.com/poeticasides) .
Without his help, I would write very little and spend all my time quilting or playing games on my Kindle. As I have mentioned in other notes, I am not a driven poet, but a driven quilter and part time poet! Included here are personal reflections, thoughts on writing, the world around us, and a giggle or two to make you smile.

Available now at Amazon.com.

*New* "Prompt Response" Poems of 2014

As the title of this book indicates, most of what I have written during the past year has been in response to weekly or daily poetry prompts provided by the good folks and readers of Robert Lee Brewer’s Poetic Asides Blog on the web at www.writersdigest.com.

As I age, time speeds by and thoughts slow to a crawl.  Bear with me and I hope you enjoy the poems of 2013.
