About the Book

Longtime Writer Captures Inner Workings of the Heart with Poetry The Collection of Poems Become First-Published Book For ages poetry has been used as an outlet to express the inner affections of the hearts of those in love. While those affections can be hard to describe on paper, one woman has done it with ease and seems to capture the true human emotions that go along with such passionate sentiments. What initially began as a collection of writings to share with her friends soon became an emotional outlet for the attraction author Sherry Wright had towards a friend. Her compilation of poems recently became her first-published work entitled Inspired. Inspired includes a variety of poems describing the full circle relationships take, including themes of ecstasy, confusion, conflict and joy. Based on her own experiences and unique observations, Wright wrote each poem as a script, allowing the reader to become the “actor” and feel the range of emotions as they read her heartfelt words. Wright’s melodic poems came from what she calls “inspiredwordsoul” which is a mixture of inspiration, imagination and emotions. Although the poems are about relationships, they are not limited to the romantic kind. Many of the poems have a variety of meanings, and Wright leaves it up to the reader to interpret each as they choose. “I tell people to read Inspired aloud in order to actually feel the message and emotions coming from them,” explains Wright. “Inspired allows the reader to feel…relate, remember, laugh and even love.” Poetry buffs and novices alike can appreciate and connect with the easy-read style of Wright’s poems. She effortlessly puts into words the emotions relationships evoke, yet many times are difficult to put into words.

Ivy and Gwen Williams:
This series of poems is truly the meaning of its title Inspired. Sherry Wright has shared an insight to her soul with her lyrical words. Anyone who reads this will undoubtedly feel a connection, in some way, to themselves in or out of a personal relationship. My husband and I both read the poems and felt a lot of the emotions that Sherry has expressed. Sherry uses words like an artist uses his paints, to allow the reader to feel a full range of emotions in such a short time. There is an instant kinship between Sherry and her readers. We recommend this book to everyone.

Karen (Lane) Davis, Community Advocate:
Ms. Wright artistically expresses the depth of emotion people often feel and cannot put into words. She expresses uniquely the feelings we all have at one time or another-love, need, curiosity, loneliness and joy. As an avid reader, I found her work unique, apart from the norm and fun to read. I loved it!

Honorable Hal and Mary Daub Former Congressman, and Mayor of Omaha Nebraska:
You must read these poems. If not from the first reading then the second time you read them, they light you up with their unique syncopation, in rhyme and style that stretches you to most pleasant reflections. This is the most fun we have had in many years with the authors' wonderful experiences set forth in poetic license.
