Perspectives of a Life Lived - Paperback

by Mary Harris (Author)

Mary Harris experienced many aspects of life that were thought-provoking. As a girl, she often walked the streets of Charleston, South Carolina, and observed the effects of the environment on people's lives. She was then able to often use her spiritual beliefs to understand and relate personally. Through the vices of poetry, she analyzed and recorded her thoughts.

Here, she also describes her adolescence endeavors, love for family, and relationships as well as how she, as an adult, persevered and navigated in a multicultural society to achieve her goals.

Perspectives of a Life Lived focuses and visualizes for the reader vivid reactions to love and daily life. It offers dedications when losing loved ones in respectful, touching tributes from the heart. There is a sense of protectiveness portrayed in the section of poems titled "God's Grace". It illuminates the serenity needed to go on through all trials and tribulations.

Mary Harris profoundly expresses her voice in the various "Perspectives" poems as she achieved her goals for a long career; traveled in her off time as a hobby; and interacted with colleagues, friends, and family.

You will surely be encouraged and see yourself on many levels, reading these exciting poems.
