What Amazon Says:

Human being has the will power to travel through an exhausting journey, win a tough battle, and heal a deep wound. Strength from hope keeps us going until the light at the end of the tunnel is in sight and striving until the storm is over.

Hurdle in her poetry collection includes themes of personal experiences in nature, difficult relationship, cancer treatment, marriage, parenthood, remembrance, reflection and inspiration. She reveals the honest self-talk and reflects a heart filled with optimism, faith and trust. She loves music, photography and watercolor painting and includes photos and paintings to complement the poems.

My Review:

“Songs of Heartstrings – Poems of Gratitude and Beatitude” is a most enjoyable book of poetry.  Told in the first person, Miriam Hurdle takes you along on her many journeys, in the ups and downs, of life.  I particularly enjoyed the photos, placed before many of the poems.  It brought me closer to what Miriam was relaying in her words.

My favorite poem is “Life’s Currents”.  Here, the author reminds us we are never alone, no matter the hardships we might face in our time here on Earth.  There is no doubt Miriam has a strong faith and relies on it for many of life’s obstacles.

The book is broken up into eight different sections, making it a very pleasant read.  Miriam uses different styles of poetry, so you’re never just reading.  She easily gets and keeps your attention throughout.  If you are looking for a poetry book filled with inspiration, and thought provoking passages, this is the book for you.  I highly recommend this to any and every one, as I thoroughly enjoyed reading “Songs of Heartstrings – Poems of Gratitude and Beatitude”.

I purchased the book in Kindle, and it also available in paperback from Amazon.
