Hempstead, NY, March 27, 2023 –(
CarryOnHarry.com)– Mary Harris, a great-grandmother and educator born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, where she attended poor, segregated schools until she moved to Rockaway, New York, excelled in her academic endeavors, earned degrees from York College and Brooklyn College, and taught for thirty years before retiring to Long Island, where she lives with her husband, Travis, has completed her new book, “Perspectives of a Life Lived”: an insightful and entertaining collection of poems sharing many deeply personal moments in a well-lived life.
Mary Harris experienced many aspects of life that were thought-provoking. As a girl, she often walked the streets of Charleston, South Carolina, and observed the effects of the environment on people’s lives. She was then able to often use her spiritual beliefs to understand and relate personally. Through the vices of poetry, she analyzed and recorded her thoughts.
Here, she also describes her adolescence endeavors, love for family, and relationships as well as how she, as an adult, persevered and navigated in a multicultural society to achieve her goals.
“Perspectives of a Life Lived” focuses and visualizes for the reader vivid reactions to love and daily life. It offers dedications for the loss of loved ones in respectful, touching tributes from the heart. There is a sense of protectiveness portrayed in the section of poems titled “God’s Grace.” It illuminates the serenity needed to go on through all trials and tribulations.
Mary Harris profoundly expresses her voice in the various “Perspectives” poems as she achieved her goals for a long career; traveled in her off time as a hobby; and interacted with colleagues, friends, and family.
Published by Page Publishing, Mary Harris’s engrossing book is an excellent choice for avid modern poetry readers.
Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase “Perspectives of a Life Lived” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
