Miscellaneous

 

 

Carolyn Matheny, or CJ as she prefers to be called, began her love of poetry by writing songs, some 30 years ago. This love affair began with songs of praise and singing them in church while playing an acoustical guitar.

Where words become roses for the heart™,” which has become CJ’s theme, was born out of her love of roses and her love for words. This symbolic meaning is that roses have always been the symbol of love.

CJ will be publishing her own book of original poetry in the very near future to be titled CJs Originals™ - Where Words Become Roses for the Heart – Life’s Garden

CJ has been published in several Anthology volumes all published by the Library of Congress, including:

   Idyllic Thoughts

      The Poetry Guild 1997

   The Solace of Night

      International Library of Poetry 2002

   Eternal Portraits

      International Library of Poetry 2003

In 2004, The Tampa Tribune printed her poem The Holocaust – A Journey.
