Mirrors of Joy and Pain

Author Linda Howard Senior, in her first completed book of poetry, Mirrors of Joy and Pain, credits as a primary source of inspiration her family: husband, Carl; sons, Carl Jr., Clayton, Corey; and daughter, Cicely. Her themes have been drawn from every aspect of life, the ups and downs, the challenges, and blessings. Throughout her life, she has been bolstered by faith in God. Even as a very young girl, Linda embraced the desire to overcome the challenges and stay the course for the sake of family. She is thankful for the family with which God has so generously blessed her. She knows it would not have been possible without God's help, and she would have missed so much. Her family has expanded to include grandchildren, Clayton III, Coriona, Miles, Layla, and Mason.


Review by Frederick Harper on March 3, 2022:
5.0 out of 5 stars A phenomenal book by Linda H. Senior
"I pause to congratulate my former school classmate and author Linda Howard Senior for the phenomenal publication of her book, MIRRORS OF JOY AND PAIN. Linda was valedictorian and I was salutatorian in our 6th grade graduating class, and we both made speeches during the commencement program. I was honored that Linda asked me to write a one-page comment as the "Forward" for her fine book. Within the pages of this book, Linda Howard Senior brings forth her wisdom as a mother, woman, leader, and spiritual soul. Please check out her book."
