Synopsis

Rose Marie Harper presents her works to us as a legacy to her family and friends that we may know her more intimately and appreciate more fully her sincere, deep and abiding love of God, His Gifts, and His People. She is aware that there are those of us who are too jaded, tired, and busy with daily living to put our thoughts in writing and to express our feelings about what we see, thing, hear and feel. And so she shares her thoughts with us in the form of poetry - over 170 poems, occasionally illustrated.
