About
Shirleyann Regis attributes her gift to her childhood in St. Lucia where she is referred to as "the storyteller," and counts her blessings as she reflects upon her Grandmother's gift as the "first storyteller." "Grandmother would tell me stories that captured me and opened my heart, but I could not comprehend in my youth," she said at a recent interview. At the age of 15, and growing into adulthood, Shirleyann realized that her Grandmother's gift was now her treasure and knew that she would always cherish the gift and the calling, for Shirleyann is a storyteller.
Emotions of You was her first published book of poems, and "seeing it in print was overwhelming." Tears of the Heart brought her experiences to life and though she recognizes that her hand was doing the writing, it was the emotions in the embracing and feeling what was flowing from her heart. Her poetic genius drives her to spread her gift throughout the world.
So, in continuing the tradition, Shirleyann Regis picks up the storytelling gig that was started by her Grandmother, and looks forward to sharing her gift with the world. Visit her sites at www.emotionsofyou.com and www.personalized-poems-r-us.com
Description
<p>FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES<br /><br />At barely nineteen, Angelica Donovan became one of the more successful winners of the T.V. show Our Next Super Model. The world assumed she was destined for a happy, fairy tale life as ‘Angel,’ the beautiful girl who was living the dream; sadly, that wasn’t to be the case. As the years passed, she flashed her million dollar smile to all her fans and fought to stay on top in a profession where you never knew who it was safe to trust while the fashion industry took big bites out of her heart and soul. And trust was a constant challenge for Angel due to the painful childhood secret she guarded as carefully as she did her heart. As a result, she never did find her true love on earth.<br /><br />When she wakes up ‘dead’ from a heart condition a month before her thirty-fifth birthday, Angel is at first relieved to find there is no death, just a change of state, like ice to water, and then she’s scared because her biggest and most important adventure is about to begin.<br /><br />Angelica is chosen to be an angel in training as a spirit guide for three souls on earth! Her assignment is to help two women to gain the courage and confidence to find, recognize and embrace the love that had eluded Angel in life. But her biggest challenge will be to save a very special little girl from the same evil experience that had poisoned Angel’s own earthly happiness and altered the course of her life.<br /><br />Will Angel be able to heal her own shattered soul in the process? And will the three souls she is guiding be able to recognize her, not as a ghostly threat, but as one of those ‘friends in high places’ we all have; the kind who often end up earning their wings.<br /><br /> </p>
Story Behind The Book
Tears of the Heart came about because the Author felt there were some poems in Emotions of You that needed to have answers, they were lovely in the book, but she felt Tears of the Heart could continue telling the story...In the case of "Rose story "and "Always" these were poems she felt needed to be continued. The outcome to these stories is a beautiful read in the pages of "Tears of the Heart."
