Through the words of poems and prose about life, love, children, friends, and family, one learns the stature of a woman who liked to make words rhyme. Never formally trained as a poet, but with the admiration and encouragement of family and friends, Jessie Hopkins used words to display her own sense of love, faith, devotion to others, and awe of life. Her simple gifts, like “Lord Help Me Climb My Mountain,” bring forth quiet wisdom. The poems in this book have been collected and bound in celebration of Jessie Hopkins’ life and in remembrance of the love that she and her husband Charles Hopkins shared. Use these poems to inspire you, if you enjoy a life of simple pleasures, and see them as a challenge to write your own remembered treasures.
