A Lifes Journey

About the Book

This poem book is very unique. The writer, Connie Coleman, is seventy years old and has been composing poems since age twelve. We have almost sixty years of poetry: that is sixty years with changes in life and thinking and, with this author, many changes of environments. Yes, this is a book to own and to read. It may help you or someone you know. Poetry has a reason. Some of the Bible is even poetic. Yes, this book is worth buying. What we have here is a gifted writer. A writer watched and often directed from above. That reason alone enables her poems to inspire!

About the Author

She was born in Carona, California. Her main home was in Kentucky. She lived in those two states plus Ohio and Florida. There were many differences in people from different states. She learned to emote with different types of people. Her poetry has influenced and inspired many people she associated with. Friends have taken her poetry to sick and to depressed people. It has been attested to that one poem actually saved a man’s life. A friend took the poem to her uncle and read it to him. He had lost his will to live and was dying. The doctors had said they could not do anything else for him; he would have to want to live. She said the poem inspired him and gave him new hope. He did get well after that and went home. Some poems she has written that inspire the soul, people have gotten chills reading. Some have given her chills when she finished them! She often wakes up with verses going through her mind at two or three in the morning. She either takes notes or writes the poem right then.
