Jody L. Collins, my friend and fellow writer, knows how to listen.
She listens to people.
She listens to God.
And she listens to nature.
A poet at heart, Jody spent years reading and absorbing inspiration from the work of dozens of fine poets. Along the way, she blended their inspiration with her other listenings into a body of original poetry. Universal music in her own voice.
In this book, Hearts on Pilgrimage: Poems and Prayers, she has collected her poems and organized them into phases or seasons. Read through these pieces, maybe straight through from first page to last. Or browse the titles–the lovely, the whimsical, the no-nonsense–to see what catches your fancy. “Thresh Hold,” perhaps? or “Gossamer Faith,” or “Steps to Picking Raspberries.”
Most importantly, take time to enjoy, to savor each one.
To listen.
Hearts on Pilgrimage: Poems and Prayers is available from Amazon.com or wherever books are sold.
Thanks for reading,
Jan
