gilt titles spine; cover photo. of Fingal's Cave,; illustrated throughout by the author's b/w. photo's. (mostly of nature); Margaret Ayton comments: 'Inspirational poetry is the voice within, which is moulded and changed by outside influences according to one's understanding. This kind of poetry is a record, a response to a situation. It contains my observations of myself in a situation - how I feel and react - but also it is a response to what I see around me.' The resulting volume is a combination of particularly moving prose and poetry enhanced by photographic images. Its underlying theme is that of love, in many of its guises, and could be said to echo the words of Kahlil Gibran. In her own very personal way, the author expands some of his eloquent interpretations; indeed, she has followed the injunction in The Prophet: 'When love beckons to you, follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep.' This chronicle of her inner journey confirms the age-old concept that suffering can be a means to spiritual growth, a means to becoming part of the Whole. It is a deeply felt work by a caring writer, and will undoubtedly invoke a profound response in many who long to help and to understand in a troubled world. signed on the title page with the message - 'Best Wishes'; photo. & brief biography of author on rear D/J. flap; a mint copy with no faults, incld. index - 157 pages.
