Making of a Poet strikes a chord in all of us who enjoy writingand readinglanguage which lifts our thoughts to dreams and hopes beyond the humdrum reality of life. When Deidre signed into a poetry course in junior high school, she found her perceptions and imaginings awakened to realms that widened her world to new enjoyment. Teachers and experiences in high school and college increased her appreciation of life and the world and friends about her. Recognition came in 1980 when Self-Acceptance appeared in Eddie Lou Coles World Treasury of Great Poems, which also included Time to Dream by her aunt Olive Jean Hope. Deidres verses have also appeared in Our Western Worlds Greatest Poems (1983), Best-Loved Contemporary Poems (1979), The Dawn of Inspiration (1999), and Our Twentieth Centurys Greatest Poems (1982). Deidre continues to share life and inspiration with friends in The Poetry Circle of writers near her home in northern California. Her story can be your story too.

This book is a compilation of my life arising from my deepest memories and heart-felt moments through the experiences I have lived. This book is in poetry—all my loves, struggles as a mother and wife, to just enjoying all the things that God has given me to see and feel. I have made lemonade with my life and I wanted to share with others all the ups and downs that have gone into making me what I have become today. I have grown very close to my Heavenly Father through each step. I hope it is an inspiration to all who read the words of my life.
