Heart Room and Hyacinths

Heart Room and Hyacinths: A Wordsmith's Journal of Joy is author Dori Jeanine Somers's life story-an epic poem set in a world of change and a journey of chosen joys and myriad gifts.

In this memoir, Somers shares her life story, interspersed with poetry she has written over the years. She traces the history of herself and her family, from her childhood to her grandchildren, recalling important events along the way and the wisdom she gained from them.

None of the things she has learned along the way is new or startling. They are the truths she knew, but didn't know she knew, until she gave them form upon the page. These discoveries might be the same for anyone-something held in the heart, sometimes completely unnoticed. The thoughts written here serve as simple reminders of your own inner wisdom, glimmers of your own special light. Dive into that pool of light, warmed in the glow of the messages here, and make any words that brighten the day a part of an inner glow.
