Born in the rolling hills of western Pennsylvania, author Bonnie McCall has always been a survivor, drawing strength from the world around her. Throughout her life, she's experienced the power and beauty of words as they flowed through her mind in poetic clusters. Often, she didn't pause to transcribe them, trusting that these words originated from a sacred source.

Balancing her passion for language with her commitment to helping others, Bonnie dedicated much of her life to working as a nurse-bringing healing and hope to those in need. When her brother passed away, she turned to writing as a means of healing her own heart. Through these heartfelt poems, she hopes to provide comfort and peace to those who are also navigating life's difficult moments.
