Lyrics for Freedom: And Other Poems (1862)

My poetry is my passion, my garden, and vision on life for what I have lived through and experienced. The poems are my reflections of the trials, triumphs, and my life intertwined with beauty and the wonders of nature. God, family, loved ones, and close friends are the source for my inspiration and dedication to this book. I am a single mother of three children who are my angels, my life, and two grandchildren simply heaven sent and are my greatest blessings on earth. I am from a large family of seven brothers, seven sisters, and my parents who are both deceased. I miss them dearly. My dream by writing this book is to touch and inspire others through my works. This is my heart and soul, my legacy to pass on to all those who have touched my life so deeply.
