Catholic Poems from the Heart of a Red Dirt Oklahoma Girl - Paperback

by Donna Sue Berry (Author)

Catholic Poems from the Heart of a Red Dirt Oklahoma Girl has been a work in progress for many years, and a compilation of poetry written from childhood to adulthood. Donna Sue was born and raised in central Oklahoma in 1955, and is a wife, mother of two, and grandmother of twelve. She and her retired rancher husband, Joel Doc, share their time between the wheat fields of Oklahoma and the mountains of Montana. She began writing poetry and song lyrics soon after she first read Romeo and Juliet during her junior year in high school. However, it wasn't until she enrolled in her freshman year at the University of Central Oklahoma (at age 47) that her poetry began to deepen and truly express her great love for Christ and her Catholic Faith. Donna Sue's favorite poems are rhyming, story poems which weave around a person's thoughts and emotions. She says she writes with an Oklahoman's heart and accent.
