Inspired By

By Michael C. Walker

“Inspired By” is the second self-published book authored by Michael C. Walker. Like his first book “One for Each Day at a Time,” it is a collection of original rhyming poetry that is inspired from the scriptures of the Old and New Testament, translated by the New International Version of the Bible. In this book, Mike cites all of the entries to passages found in the scripture of the Bible for the reader’s edification. The objective with this book is aspirational by the author. He is hopeful that the reader will find strength in the words and follow their own pathway to clarity and tranquility in the midst of their busy or hectic day. Also included in this book is a section devoted to the bird photography of Mike’s gracious collaborator, Jennie Malone.

Michael C. Walker

Michael C. Walker is a practicing Roman Catholic Christian. He has a strong willingness to share his faithfulness in God through his rhyming poetry. He wants to bring his unique voice to the fore in this second book and to help and inspire others to find their own path to inner peace, enlightenment and a better understanding of God’s love. He is a happy father of two adult daughters. Jennie Malone is a singer, actor, dancer, and musician and performs both nationally and internationally. She is also an avid birder and budding bird photographer, and excitedly seeks out birds that are new to her to photograph on her travels. Jennie has a great love for all birds and is not only captivated by their beauty, form, and colors, but by their habits and interactions with each other.
