HI FOLKS! These writings are so inspired, they will have you laughing , crying, saying "Yep, Ive been there" and so deeply informative. I truly would have liked to have met this remarkable, yet simple child of Faith. I know one thing for sure, the people I have shared her works with, have wept with joy because they could relate to what she was writing about. Now that is what I call a writer! I recommend this book for people with depression and even if you don't have depression. She touches every aspect of life giving credit where credit is due. It truly is a gift that keeps on giving. Eileen Hines

I would gladly recommend this publication to everyone. The words are a real source of inspiration for any and every occasion and situation.

I HAVE READ MANY BOOKS OF POETRY IN MY TIME BUT I HAVE NEVER READ SUCH BEAUTIFULL POETRY THAT MAKES YOU LAUGH, CRY, & ALSO MAKES YOU HAPPY & SAD.I WOULD UNEQIIVICABLY RECOMEND THIS BOOK TO ANY ONE THAT HAS THE WISH TO READ SUCH WONDERFULL POETRY THAT WAS OBVIOUSLY WRITTEN FROM THE HEART.TRULY A MASTERPIECE IN ANY BODY'S LANGUAGE!!!

This is a very special Poem and Prayer Book. Helen Steiner Rice was a remarkable writer of Books, Poems, Prayers and Greeting Cards. Her great works will always remain treasures of words. I highly recommend this book to any reader.

Became acquainted with Helen's poems and prayers in greeting cards many years ago. Found this book and have purchased one for myself and two others for friends. Very uplifting and even funny at times. Both friends loved the book. Lighter reading that anyone can identify with--not the heavy (difficult to understand) type of poems. Wonderful!!!

I have had a passion for all kinds of poetry most of my life, but since my interest is in more of the ancient masters I was unaware of this woman's poetry until very recently. This volume (The Poems and Prayers of Helen Steiner Rice) includes many beautiful poems, along with numerous (Too many for my taste)poems that have a religious and mystical theme. Even though I did not care for the religious poems I thought many of Rice's other poetry was absolutely fantastic. It is poetry that anyone can appreciate and understand. The so-called "modern free verse" poetry style that often includes meaningless words put together randomly with no real purpose and meaning and often reads like they were written to a resident of an insane asylum never appealed to me. This is why I very seldom read present day poetry.Some of the many poems I loved in this collection include: "The comfort and sweetness of peace." "Dark Shadows fall in the lives of us all." "A loving wish for a happy day." "A word of understanding." "Life." "Giving is the key to living." and "Give lavishly! Live abundantly!" One of the many things I like about this talented poet is she writes fairly short poems, which are my favorite poetry (Haiku for example) forms. Here is one from this collection I liked."GREATNESS""A man may be wealthy,Good fortune may be his fate.But only man's motivesCan make him truly great."In conclusion, if you enjoy reading beautiful and meaningful poetry that touches your soul, you may want to check out this book of poetry by Helen Steiner Rice.Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: The Samurai Soul: An old warrior's poetic tribute)

I make my own greeting cards and I use these poems inside. My friends that receive the cards tell be how much they appreciate the verses.

I just started reading this book yesterday and I really love her poetry. I look forward to reading this over and over in the future. I have always enjoyed anything she writes. Thanks for a great book I can add to my collection.
