Poetic Expressions Of Heart and Spirit

About the Book

From the backdrop of memorable childhood experiences enriched by schooling, church teachings, and strong parental modeling of spiritual values, in the setting of a friendly village environment in her island of Jamaica, the author, Mavis Aldridge, Ph.D, has compiled Poetic Expressions From Heart and Spirit. Those indelible experiences directed her transformative journey to a fascinating level of maturity where she now recognizes how they all fit and climax into a beautiful mosaic clarifying her purpose for being. In this book, her experiences are reflected in themes of nature, family, friendship, and spirituality. Some of her poems have been written while seated in a coffee shop, on an airplane flight, by the sea, in the park, from her apartment porch, or during walking meditations. The range of stories and messages expressed in simple language in the poems have cross-generational appeal and can generate much conversation even among children, because they resonate with so many aspects of our common humanity.
