Inspired by two poets, George MacDonald and Betty K. Aberlin, Judith gives us her version of daily reflections in poetry.

Inspired by two poets, George MacDonald and Betty K. Aberlin, Judith gives us her version of daily reflections in poetry. Within these short but courageous poems, she shares her journey in faith and doubt, disappointments and success, fears, frustrations and the unfolding of her life in a small, rural town in the Southwest. Some days, she shows off her light-hearted acceptance of small-town life. Other times, she explores emotions and truths that rarely surface from the depths of one's soul. Like the rest of us, Judith's days change with the seasons, sometimes with the rising sun of a new dawn; the poems reflect this cycle. It is this repetitive, daily poetic meditation that offers a fuller understanding of Judith, her joys as well as struggles, and her particular way of daring to witness. While her poems come from her rural lifestyle, the lessons are universal. Judith invites readers to enter their own daily reflections on each blank page that accompanies her prayer poems. She hopes her words might provide a gentle push and encouragement to all of us traveling this path called Life.
