LOVE
I'M SITTING ALONE
THE UNITED STATES TO GREAT BRITAIN
CHRIST MY REFUGE
"FEED MY SHEEP"
This modest volume gathers the poet’s lyrical reflections from her earliest girlhood sketches to the mature verses of her later years. Each piece emerged not from a plan to publish but from a moment of inspiration—whether gazing at a New Hampshire cliff, celebrating a temperance hall dedication, or responding to the clamor of liberty bells ringing for emancipation. The collection offers a window into a mind that turns ordinary scenes into meditations on nature, faith, and the human spirit.
The poems are marked by a calm, reverent tone that invites listeners to pause and contemplate. From the towering “Old Man of the Mountain” to tender musings on constancy and loss, the verses blend vivid imagery with a quietly soaring sense of hope. Listeners will find these works a soothing companion for moments of stillness, a gentle balm for weary hearts, and a reminder of the enduring power of simple, heartfelt expression.
