CHICAGO, March 27, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Mary J. Johnson offers readers a variety of emotions in her new poetry collection, Inner Beauty of my Soul and Thoughts: A Poem Book (now available through AuthorHouse). Her take on a variety of topics encourages readers to look within and embrace self-reflection.
In an often-confusing world, emotions and distress are commonplace. Johnson's poetry allows readers to both see the chaos of daily life in a new way and look beyond it to what truly matters. This book emphasizes a bold approach from various angles on subjects such as love, relationships, spirituality, imperfection and even rejection.
"Speaking Out" illustrates her style:
Mary j. j. is writing with words/ That is creeping phenomenally out/ Characterized which revitalize my thoughts/ That synchronizes my name/ A poet, a writer who's encourage/ By the game of open-minded thoughts/ One of My characteristics style/ So I share my love, dislike, disappointment, and doubts/ My way of speaking out
From poems on everything from a broken heart to the joys of birthdays, Inner Beauty of My Soul and Thoughts provokes laughter and tears.
"Most of all," Johnson writes, "it will cause you to think and reflect on your own personal experiences and provide you with an intimate vision of life."
Born in Hollandale, Miss., Johnson was raised in Chicago. At 35, she has four children, enjoys being active and often cooks, writes and plays tennis.
