Description
Jean was born in 1943 in a less than salubrious part of London. Her playground was the bomb-sites. She attended what Ofsted would now call a 'Failing' Secondary Modern School before being sent, at the age of 14, to Secretarial College in Ealing. At 16 she met Robin who was doing his National Service. They were married 18 months later and in 1968 moved to Wokingham and became the proud parents of two daughters. After sixty years together Robin succumbed to cancer in September 2019. Jean now enjoys the company of three grown-up grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Jean has always loved writing and has previously had her poems and articles published in magazines and newspapers. Following the success of her books 'The Sting In The Tale', 'The Barb In The Rhyme', 'The Thorn In The Verse', 'The Lyric In The Lines', 'The Spirit In The Words', 'Let's Smile Again' and 'The Actress Within', she has become a regular guest speaker at various social events and has broadcast many of her poems on Radio Berkshire. Most of the poems in this book, 'The Passion In The Poem' reflect on life with humour and nostalgia. All are thought provoking.
