    About this ebook

    After completing my first book, Reflections: A Collection Of Poetry Written By Donna Mainor, I was inspired to write this book in May of 2009. I became a born-again Christian. My life was transformed in ways I never dreamed of. Writing these poems is my way of sharing and expressing my faith. I hope you enjoy reading these poems as much as I have enjoyed writing them. God Bless You. Donna Mainor.

    Donna Mainor

    In February 2007, I suffered a Stroke, which partially paralyzed the left side of my body. I lost the use of my left hand, which was my dominant hand. I never lost my love for writing poetry. Writing this book has been a healing process for me. My healing and recuperation from this debilitating illness has been very lengthy and tedious. During that time, I did a great deal of reflecting on past experiences as well as on current events and social issues. Expressing myself through poetry has always been a catharsis. Writing poetry allows me to gain and keep perspective. It is fulfilling for me to be able to share my thoughts and feelings with others through this art.
