POETRY books by EMILY M. PARRIS

Hello. I have been writing poetry since I was a young child. I was about 8 years old when I asked my Dad what I could get for my Mom for a present for her birthday. He said...."Why don't you write her a poem?" I did so and when my Mother, Frances Bennett, read it she cried. That is what really amazed me and made me want to be a writer. It was amazing to me that I could move someone emotionally with words and I have loved writing ever since. Below are some of my poetry books that you can order. Many of them are dedicated to John Denver and if you're a fan of his you should check out Rocky Mtn High. Below are some of the books that are in stock and available to purchase:
