The Point of It All Lillie Smith Bailey

The Point of It All is a collection of poems grounded on the writers experiential and vicarious experiences. To the poet, poems are designed to raise, respond, and react to points that reach deep into the soul because therein lies a persons innermost thoughts, emotions, and instincts about right and wrong. This poets vision reflects how deeply she feels about ideas and issues that force humans to question themselves and their behavior. Some of the poems, although not intended to be didactic, serve as reminders for everyone to be forever conscious of the embedded messages in society that might threaten their values and change their points of emphasis because it is important that everyone must forever remain true to their moral vision.
