"Jeanie has captured the essence of everyday life - the humorous, the serious and the tragic.  She has done it in a way that is totally understandable and real.  Her poetical writing carries with it a snapshot of her own inner spirit and that writing and spirit makes this book what it is - a joy to read."
              -- Jerry Mullins, Retired Teacher, Counselor & Writer


"So often when I have finished reading certain poems, I think, 'Sounds nice, but what does it mean?'  Not so with your refeshing, straight-from-the-heart poetry.  It is a delightful mix of humorous, heart-warming and inspirational verse."
