Jackie

I love this little book. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is someone whose life fascinates me. Her love of art, literature , especially poetry was the inspiration for this little collection. Caroline Kennedy shares a glimpse into her mother's heart through some of Jackie's favorite poems.
One of my favorites...

Sea Joy

by Jacqueline Bouvier

When I go down by the sandy shore

I can think of nothing I want more

Than to live by the booming blue sea

As the seagulls flutter round about me

I can run about- when the tide is out

With the wind and the sand and the sea all about

And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish

Oh~ to live by the sea is my only wish.
