A Poet's Life: Memories, Moods & Reflections (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781098384753)

Ginger Covert Colla has written poetry since she was a third grader and was inspired to become as poet when her very first poem was published in the elementary school newspaper. Her poems, The Cathedral and Christmas Wishes, were published in anthologies of the International Library of Poetry, The Lightness of Being in 2000 and Twilight Musings in 2005. Several of her poems were set to music and published, including The Cathedral as part of a major work for orchestra, chorus and soloists by Brad Nelson, and Winter Solstice for chorus by Charles Galetar. This chapbook, A Poet's Life: Memories, Moods and Reflections is a collection of 41 poems selected from Ginger's poetry anthology of over 125 poems.

Ginger is a career music educator with degrees in music education, and both a Master of Arts and a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Choral Conducting. She is also a licensed Kindermusik educator, a composer of children's songs and an author of The Christmas Elf, a rhymed children's story book.
