Publisher's Synopsis
New Hampshire, Sleepy Hollow, and Walpack... In these places, Kerri Nicole McCaffrey has had profound spiritual experiences. Kerri Nicole's fifth book of poetry will take you back to your childhood's magical spots, helping you move into a hopeful present and a more faith-filled future. Educated by the monks of St. Meinrad Archabbey, Kerri has moved through changes in her life only by God's grace. Like an en plein- air artist, Kerri spends hours each day in the wilderness where she finds God's reflection; here, she does her best writing and is most inspired. As Kerri states aptly, ..".we are all Helen Kellers/ at the well-pump/ waiting for our epiphany." Lines like these will help you navigate your own faith journey-through the orchard, and to its Keeper. Kerri was born and raised in Hawthorne, New York, in the same town that houses Washington Irving's Sleepy Hollow and David Rockefeller's Hudson Pines farm. In her literal backyard was a convent-with orchards to roam. Kerri has taught English for twenty-five years, and spends her summers in New Hampshire's White Mountains supervising a camp's spectacular waterfront.
