Hope Springs

POETRY FOR THE SOUL - VOLUME 2

Beschreibung

Poet Ana Lisa de Jong's book 'Hope Springs', her second published volume of inspirational poetry, is an exciting addition to her 'Poetry for the Soul' series. Following in the same vein as 'Songs in the Night', and in the same quiet but profound voice, Ana Lisa speaks strengthening words of encouragement, solace and peace to her readers. Her themes of faith in a flawed world, light shining in the darkness, and joy constantly renewed, does not fail to uplift the reader and provide fresh hope and inspiration. The theme for this book is 'faith, hope and love' and in her introduction Ana Lisa says of these essential characteristics of the human spirit, 'faith, hope and love, these three things remain... but for faith, hope and love, what do we have, and what do we keep? But, in the end they are everything and all we ever need'. Each hopeful and hope-filled poem in this book is a question which answers itself, ringing with truth and assurances of provision. Ana Lisa, through her honest and wise writing points out the God placed strength, courage, and ability in all of us to discern the truth and answer our own questions. Her words are a gift that keeps on giving in that each time they are read, the reader reveals another layer of insight, previously not perceived. Similarly to 'Songs in the Night', this book 'Hope Springs' is a treasure, and a truly inspiring read.

Ana Lisa has since published two inspirational poetry books in two years, with Lang Book Publishing. To keep up her one book a year challenge, her third addition to the 'Poetry for the Soul Series', 'Seeking the Light', which follows on from 'Songs in the Night' and 'Hope Springs', will be published in late 2016. She is also a regular contributor to Godspace-msa.com. Glynn Young, Editor of Tweetspeak Poetry says of Ana Lisa's writing, "These are poems to be read in the quiet of the early morning, or in the quiet of the darkness of the late evening. They are psalms and meditations for the heart and soul, and reading them, over and over, is an investment in the centering of one's spirit." Ana Lisa writes at livingtreepoetry.com and lives in the beautiful North West Region of Auckland. http://www.joyinanewway.com/ http://www.amazon.com/Songs-The-Night-LISA-JONG/dp/0994115164 https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/9864906.Ana_Lisa_De_Jong https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ana-Lisa-de-Jong-Poetry/1458070414486032?pnref=story
