Inspiration for the Spirit

A lovely place to wander for poetry and inspiration to soothe the soul

Sign My Guestbook

guestbook

lettersOne of the first things you discover when you put an inspirational website online, is that a lot of people will write to you. Many of the letters I receive are complimentary, praising the website and its content. Some are more specific, mentioning a section of the site or a poem the writer especially likes. Still others are intensely raw and personal from people who feel comfortable enough to confide and share their private thoughts and feelings. Mail is always welcome. I feel fortunate that there are so many interesting individuals who not only visit Inspiration for the Spirit, but also take the time to write.

Peace and Love always,
Patricia

    Hi Patricia! I do love your work! You have a fresh way of delicately drawing emotions. I especially liked “Out of Sight” . . . “Mean Brother Rising” . . . “Cloud Nine.”

    “Cloud Nine” is absolutely beautiful. Solitude, blissful solitude is one of the most denied and yet precious assets we have. I’m glad you were able to get past the pain and find and celebrate YOU again!

    It is a pleasure to welcome you to the world of hope, love and giving. I love being a part of a group that cares, and it is nice to share it with someone special.

    I write poetry, too, and I will come back to visit you often. Your poetry is beautiful.
