Blessings Right and Left

Blessings Right and Left is a melody of verse with poems that explore joy and grief, as well as amazement at God's beauty in creation and His faithfulness. There is poetic commentary, ranging from "war" to "fashions," and a narrative of a "fabulous fudge cake." The author presents an amusing picture of what little boys are not and describes how a conniving pair of pets deceives their master. Her remembrance of childhood and her pride in her family, past and present, are presented with tenderness. Using the tools of the poet, Verna Cole Mitchell invites you into her world.
