Gratitude: Body, Family & Spirit: a collection of poems

By A.J. Paris

Paris' second collection of poems, "Grateful in Body, Family & Spirit", is a three-part collection chronicling her battle with illness, the support and love of friends and family, and her reliance and growth in Faith. Paris was diagnosed with a debilitating chronic illness, scleroderma, at age 14. Her poignant poems regarding her illness ring with truth and strength. In some ways, it has shaped her life and those around her. A grateful support system: grateful for life, grateful for love, grateful for one another. And, the only way to truly get through all tragedies in life, be it health, heartbreak, or death, Paris writes boldly about her growth and faith in her relationship with God. Though this is Paris' journey and observations, readers will find themselves in these glimpses of human frailty and strength.
