'The priceless gift of life is love For with the help of God above Love can change the human race And make this world a better place.'
Helen Steiner Rice reflects on just what it means to be a mother, in the inspirational poetry that has spoken profoundly to so many readers over the years.
Helen Steiner Rice is one of my favorite poets. My grandmother would read to me and my sister her poetry before bed.
This collection is poems about mothers, friendship and giving of oneself for others. It is beautifully illustrated with gorgeous watercolor paintings. There are also quotes from the Bible, presidents, other poets, etc.
It makes a lovely book to read a poem each day or read in one setting. Also makes a lovely gift. Very inspirational.
