This book contains a collection of poems, many of them written as encouragement to family and friends throughout the years. Some are strictly wishes to the recipient, others reflect her faith and her desire to praise God for the rich blessings received in this journey we call "life." The pencil sketches are the artistry of Joy Lillie, a sister of the author. Joy retired from teaching after 25 years. Art has always been an important facit of her life.
