My Life

by Sharon Marie O'Connell

I have been writing poems for 40 years. Whenever I feel passionate about something that occurs in my life, I write down my feelings and create a poem. The cover of my book is unique and there's an interesting story behind it. When I was on vacation in Las Vegas, my sister Cheryl and I were going downstairs to meet my parents for dinner. When the elevator door opened, there was a dozen roses in pieces on the floor. I had this crazy idea to pick up the pedals and bring them back to the room. We laid the pedals on the bedsheet, shaped them into a heart and took a picture. This became the cover of my book. It symbolizes the many times my heart was broken and I fell apart but I always picked up the pieces and moved on. My poems are about inspiration, challenges, family, friends, tragedies and everything that I feel passionate about. This book is the story of My Life.
