Pettit

Coming Home is a collection of 26 poems written by the author, Sue Shellabarger Pettit [1969-2000] in December, 1984 during a 48-hour period of gratitude-driven inspiration, one week after the arrival of her two week old adopted daughter, Maggie.

The poems were written in rhyme and iambic pentameter and were experienced and said by the author to have come ＂through her, not from her＂.

The author stated, ＂Coming Home is about coming back to myself and my own wisdom. It is about finding that peaceful place within; a place where I feel secure and full.＂

She added ＂ Coming Home was written as a celebration as I began to realize that the only thing that takes me away from a peaceful life is traveling in my own thoughts.＂

In the last lines of the title poem, the author states with a powerful certainty, ＂Coming Home’s a simple journey, takes no movement on my part, Instead of listening to my thoughts, I listen with my heart.＂

This powerful experience of inspiration occurred shortly after the author and her husband had met Sydney Banks and had become students of the Three Universal Principles of Mind, Thought and Consciousness.

The collection of poems was first self published in 1987. As interest in The Three Principles flourished and spread internationally, demand multiplied for easy availability to the inspired poems.

＂Lilly’s Loose＂, a poem which captures the thought created experience of emotional upset, has been published with permission in six books by other authors. You are in for a treat!!!
