Publisher's Synopsis
Worth of My Words, Mary McBrideBrowns first publication, stands as her supreme achievement during a difficult time as she experiences pain, heartache, heartbreak, disappointment, humiliation, and public persecution in a small Mississippi town where she had dedicated her time and career educating children.
The poems in this book are written as expressions of Marys method of exhaling through her pains and providing therapy for herself through the worth of her words.
Mary provides you with numerous poems stemming from various controversial topics: religion, relationships, racism, reality, and release. As you read her poems, you will be able to see and feel the pain, sadness, joy, and raw emotion in the worth of her words. She also provides you with insight as to how each poem was derived.
This is an easy, enjoyable, and refreshing piece of literature, and you will definitely be able to make a connection with many of the poems.
I have always believed that there is enormous power in the placement of words. On one hand, when strategically positioned, words can save lives, mend broken hearts, and unify those who are separated. Yet on the other hand, these same words, intentionally rearranged, can kill self-esteem, break the strongest bonds, tear down walls, and destroy peaceful unions.
