Carroll Ackley, a native born, Maine resident, licensed alcohol and drug counselor, certified clinical supervisor, devoted writer and author, has completed his newest work "Spirit Listening": a gripping and potent work that depicts the beauty of words and poetry.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Carroll Ackley's poignant tale brings a sense of understanding and faith in the reader.
Spirit Listening is an emotional, poetic journey into some of the author's reflections on life, love and loss. In reading, you will sometimes smile, sometimes shed a tear, but always be able to find verses of inspiration and healing (Spirit Listening is organized by topic for easy reference). The collection was composed over a thirty five year period. It was initially compiled for the author's personal reflections of emotional snapshots in time. However, as the author later began sharing some verses with friends and family, it became evident that chords of commonalities were being plucked. Spirit Listening touches the heart of the young and old alike. It contains a mix of everyday living and messages of Christian hope, but is not religious. The author uses simple, everyday language that is easy to read, yet profound in conjuring mental images that evoke individual responses to common life events we don't always allow ourselves to communicate to others. Spirit Listening is a book readers will treasure and visit frequently for themselves and to share with others.
Readers who wish to experience this profound work can purchase "Spirit Listening" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
