    About this ebook

    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!

    Connie Coleman

    Lonnie Coleman lived from 1941 to Aug 2017. He was my brother. I regret he will not see the book but he knew his pictures would be in print. Enjoy reading, enjoy the pictures He Drew for you! I am 72 years old. I have written verse since I was 12 years old. Children, that makes me as old as dirt! I have 4 daughters, 11 grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren! A large family is a true blessing. I was born close to the time the war ended. There was a “Depression” then. Jobs and food was scarce. My Father had no job. He cleaned out an old chicken coop on our home place for my first home. He was born; (at home) in a box car. His Dad was working to build a railroad. Many workers lived in rail road boxcars; the others lived in tents. Isn’t History sometimes funny?

      Mar 4, 2023

      I’m going to be 90 this year and, looking back, I was always happiest when I’d fallen in love. Falling in love is a very expressive thing. And I’ve done it once or twice. Of course, the high point of all this carry-on was in the 1950s and 60s, when I

      I once was a chestnut, I hung from a tree,Like all of the young, I longed to be free.One day I landed, it felt like a mile.I need not have worried, I was in Hutton soil.My work had just started, ‘twas about 1803.That’s when I knew, I’d become a tree.
