From the depths of her Texas roots to standing atop Colorado's most spectacular National Park, Lawson leads us word by word through a lifetime of poetry, from heartbreak and despair, to celebration and unabashed joy. TWENTY-THREE FULL COLOR PHOTOS enhance the diverse themes of nature, faith, children, and relationships, including not only the well-loved previously published verses, but never-before-shared songs from her heart. Also included, "Act IV of The Grand Lake Pageant," a poetic tribute to Enos Mills and the birth of Rocky Mountain Natonal Park, as performed at the Park's 75th Anniversary celebration in 1990. "... a collection of poems that capture the benchmarks in life that are common for folks who celebrate nature, children, and love. The author shares candid accounts of her diverse experiences as a resident of Colorado. Some of the poems offer historical accounts of the natural gem, Rocky Mountain National Park and its surrounding communities. Ms. Lawson's book is an inspiration for the poet in all readers and a must read for residents and visitors to Colorado, especially as the centennial of the park approaches in 2015." KINDLE Review "I've read this book cover to cover several times and now I find myself going back to savor poems that are becoming my favorites. The author is obviously a gifted poetic wordsmith. Her poems run the emotional gamut from belly-laughers to slowly read tear-jerkers and incredibly poignant pieces that have meaning for everyone who experiences the human condition. Do I like it? I love it! Absolutely 5 stars!" NOOK Review Janice Lawson lives in Grand Junction, Colorado. This is her third book.
