After a near-death experience at a young age, Shirley Ann Wood
began writing poems to document how the event changed her life, and
to somehow put words to her newfound and deep belief in God. Over
the years, as the collection grew, she began to write about
different aspects of her life. Heart & Soul Poems is the end
result. Honest, unflinching, and deeply moving, these poems aim to
provoke soul-searching and give hope and personal enlightenment to
all. Through symbolism, metaphor, and imagery, Wood's themes center
on the most basic of human emotions: love, acceptance, fear, pain,
and courage. In "The Circle Game," Wood explores the circular paths
we follow in trying to understand what God has planned for our
lives; "The Dreamer" looks at Wood's alter ego in her dreams.
"Golden Bells" celebrates the miracle of Jesus' birth, and "Hiding
Place" reveals the secret spot in our soul where we all go at
certain times to conceal ourselves from the world. Wood's emotional
language and strong imagery offers powerful inspiration. Heart
& Soul Poems will resonate with you long after the last page is
turned.

As each of us learns to walk, talk, and feed ourselves, we also
need to learn how to understand each other so that we can help
ourselves and those around us. Faith and Hope Poems presents a new
poetry collection based upon author Shirley Ann Wood's soul
searching in response to this need. These poems offer personal
reflections and simple statements of her own feelings on life.
Because of a near death experience at the age of five, she has a
great desire to honor God in her life. With these verses, Wood
shares her deepest, most spiritual thoughts. Letter to Jesus Dear
Jesus your love is so sweet It enfolds me and life is complete I
came to the cross, bewildered and lost And laid all I was at your
feet You looked with compassion and love Held me up to the Father
above Said-behold she is mine In our nature divine she is cleansed
And restored in our love Then the spirit descended on me Broke the
chains that I might be free Now the Lord dwells within I am filled
to the brim And the glory of God now I see ...
