Growing up in Ohio, Mildred Thayer Carneal enjoyed all the pleasures and pains life had to offer. But it was when she entered third grade that she realized how she could express herself through the magic of poetry.
Written over fifty-eight years, from 1954 to 2012, Poetry and Thoughts reveals Carneal’s life from childhood through adulthood by using anecdotes, thoughts, and poetry. Her words reveal a diverse perception and a keen attention to detail, and each section is filled with vivid imagery.
Whether Carneal reminisces about the apple trees and cows of her childhood, meditates on the emotions of motherhood, or inspires others to remember the true reason for Christmas, her accessible language and thought-provoking turns of phrase will encourage you to think about God and where He is in your life today.
Enjoy the comforting feeling of God’s hand caring for those you love or the memories of times shared with loved ones now grown or gone.
Whatever inspiration you need, you’ll find it in Poetry and Thoughts.
