"Inspired By" is the second self-published book authored by Michael C. Walker. Like his first book "One for Each Day at a Time," it is a collection of original rhyming poetry that is inspired from the scriptures of the Old and New Testament, translated by the New International Version of the Bible. In this book, Mike cites all of the entries to passages found in the scripture of the Bible for the reader's edification. The objective with this book is aspirational by the author. He is hopeful that the reader will find strength in the words and follow their own pathway to clarity and tranquility in the midst of their busy or hectic day. Also included in this book is a section devoted to the bird photography of Mike's gracious collaborator, Jennie Malone.
