Catholic life in verse
Experience the wonder, awe, joy, and sorrow of a full Catholic life. Author Mary Vasquez puts her heart into personal reflections on her childhood, continuing through adulthood, and ending with poetic meditations on God and His creation. 

The author holds nothing back, showing the dynamism of strained relationships as well as more light-hearted and uplifting moments. Sorrowful but joyous, serious but fun, Vasquez reveals in verse how she uses prayer as a spiritual weapon.
