The poems range across a wide spectrum, but there's plenty of interest for everyone.
Mary says she wrote the first one 60 years ago and continued to add to them - until a book was proposed.
Mary was born in 1945 in Fieldstown, Monasterboice, the third eldest of a family of eight.
In 1966, Mary (nee Winters) married Billy Brennan and they live at Ballybailie Cross, Ardee. Mary has two children Joseph and Susan, a daughter in law Ann, a late son in law Padraig Heneghan, and two grandchildren, Josh and Sophie Brennan.
Mary's hobbies include gardening, walking, cycling, music, old time dancing, travelling and of course writing poems and tributes about people, places and all things nice.
