Dream of Youth Poetry

Introduction to Dream of Youth

This is actually the first book I wrote. The first half was directly dictated by God. I wrote the last part later. He set the form of the poems – that they should rhyme in the old way, etc. My husband says that it is not as much children’s poems, but an older person looking back at youth. I cannot explain the enormous leap between this book and the Touch of God books.

Dedicated to my parents, Dorothy and Carroll Wilson, from whom I learned the appreciation of little things, and love of the great outdoors.
