This is a book of poetry. It expresses the impact personal childhood memories have had on the author's adult life. The author shares personal narratives to demonstrate how she has been shaped by her family, the African American culture, and most importantly, by her Christian belief. Her stories emphasize the vital role a child's home environment can play in all aspects of the child's adult life, both positively and negatively. Her poetry has been inspired by her thirty-three years' experience as an educator. The reader will gain an enlightened perspective about the challenges being managed in today's public schools. A few poems even inspire solutions. She is convinced that her Christian belief system has the power to transform lives. Her desire is for her poetry to inform churches of the social ills threatening our children's future, in hope that the Church will be moved to action, spreading the good news. She knows from personal experience that living according to a godly belief system can improve anybody's quality of life. The poems are simple to understand but are able to engage the reader in meaningful thoughts. Discover the experience for yourself, and then share it with others.
