With a poem on the newly formed United Nations in her teens, Marjorie Jillson began her long and joy filled journey in the language of poetry. These poems are a small collection from many, written off and on over a period of about fifty years. During periods of difficult illness during her adult life, she became even more convinced that God does have purpose for each one of our lives. We are forever connected with God. She includes in this group of poems, her reflections on God, nature and some "tough stuff" to consider. Now in her 70's, she lets some of these poems go into the wind.

The author previously published a poetry book in 2004, Windswept, and has written the text for five hymn publications with music by the top German composer, Heinz Werner Zimmermann.

Since I was a little girl I saw myself on one island and everyone else on a neighboring one. I didn't know how or why but I knew I had to reach them. When unexpected people started approaching me on the influence my writings had on them, I realized my work could be used as my bridge, my way of reaching others. I have always felt that my purpose in life was for me to make others know they're not alone in what they feel. And that it was my job to remove them from the mud if they were to ever be stuck. My hope is that these poems can be the rope, that not only the believers in Christ, can be pulled out of the mud with, but also the non-believers.

May God be found in all your lives!

With all the love one could contain,

In the course of adapting to English The Educated Cat from the Yiddish (by Nochum Yood), Quartet from the Russian (by Krilov), and The Wolf and the Stork (from French, by La Fontaine), Ms. Seeman became enamored of fables. She began to write her own poetry involving all animals and their conversations, adding illustrations.
