If you love a poem that tells a beautiful story and can make you laugh or cry then you will appreciate Bernice Holder’s poetry. And she does it all in the old style of rhyme. In some instances she has added pictures to enhance the story.
Precious and oh-so-dear memories dwell within each of us and this beautiful collection of rhyming poems is just the nudge needed to cause them to surface where we can linger on them for a few minutes, persuading us to smile, to sigh, or to weep with the joy we felt so many years past.
Precious Memories is a collection of wonderful stories set to rhyme. Each poem is based on a personal experience of the author. Life experiences shared by so many but put into words with a tenderness that grasps the heart and overwhelms it with emotion. Each selection draws one deeper into the past to think again on fragile memories suspended in time…memories of an old piano, or the ice cream socials from church, or perhaps a three-year old son asking “Mama, will you marry me?” How many of us can see our own father in The Fisherman, or perhaps The Baseball Player or The Runner in our own children.
As the story unfolds in The Sisters, the special bond between five girls becomes evident. The uniqueness of a family tradition is revealed in The Cameo Necklace. This tradition is now carried on by a third generation of great granddaughters. The adorable tale of The Strawberry Thief tells the saga of a three-year friendship with a resident cottontail. And who among us is not reminded of An Old Love as each line unlocks a hidden, but secretly cherished, memory. So…“If you’ve ever wondered, you may know ‘tis so, A poet only writes about the things he’s come to know.”
