Life Is a Poem Mary Minjeur

As a student Mary excelled in reading and writing. Over the years, her interests increased to writing about life's experiences including love, relationships, children, aging, sickness, and dying. She also wrote articles and newsletters for philanthropic groups and was a member of the Newspaper Institute of America.

Spiritual reflections and imagery in nature brought her to appreciate the beauty of God's creation and man's need for harmony, solace, and, at times, solitude. Events that happened along the way inspired her to write the feelings that accompany them, and ultimately share them with others who experience many of the same things. Interactions with family and friends, their health issues, loneliness, and good times are all a part of living while trying to understand life's twists and turns and survive them.

She hopes you enjoy reading her freestyle poems and find comparable stories to identify with in life through these literary works.
