About This Book

A compact collection of lyrical poems and short narratives that meditate on motherhood, faith, and the consolations found in nature. Many pieces recall childhood and domestic scenes, confront suffering and loss, and draw on Christian imagery to offer comfort and moral reflection. The verse moves between contemplative monologue, descriptive nature writing, and occasional narrative sketches, balancing personal feeling with devotional and ethical concerns. Throughout, simple pleasures—flowers, seasons, quiet homelife—are set against questions of destiny, grief, and spiritual hope.

The Unseen.

Do you feel my spirit with you—
Feel my kiss upon your lips?
Doth your heart throb with the message
That the messenger outstrips?
Ay, I know your thought, responding,
Know this soul-touch is of thine,
That you send me tender soothing
O’er love’s subtile, unseen line.
Soul to soul can tell its sorrow,
Sympathy response impart—
Joy can flash o’er lines of distance,
Touch and thrill a kindred heart.
Loneliness! I scarcely know it;
Loved ones in my spirit’s reach
Know my call and give me answer—
Silence pulses with their speech.
We have glimpse of joys, thro’ this one,
That await the soul above,
Where unbroken, sweet communion
Flows thro’ sympathy and love.
