The Poet
About Sheila McRoy
After years of searching for that “perfect” card to express her feelings for family and friends — and being unable to find anything that captured what she truly wanted to say — Sheila searched her heart and began writing and designing her own cards and gifts.
Faith in God, the blessings of family, and the joys of friendship have been the inspiration for her work.
“I hope reading the words touch your heart as much as writing them has touched mine!”
Behind the Verse
Where the Poems Come From
Each piece carries a true story — written in seasons of joy, loss, friendship, and faith.
The Lilac Tree
Written for a cousin who felt something left undone after his father’s death. Sheila sent the poem with a lilac tree to plant in memory — and has heard for years how families “bury their sorrow beneath the lilac tree.”
My Best Friend
Begun as a reflection on the friendship found in Sheila’s faith in Jesus, then recognized as a portrait of dear friends and family. Special versions exist for Best Friend, Sister, Mother, and more by simply changing the word Friend to Mother, Sister, and the like.
They Tell Me You’re in Heaven
Written for Sheila’s dad, who passed two months after a cancer diagnosis. She held his hand as he went home — and the poem continues to comfort others walking the same road.
Forgive & Forget
Born when two sisters each insisted they were right — and used Sheila as a sounding board. She wrote the poem, gave each a copy, and they settled their differences.
From the Heart
What People Say
Real notes from family, friends, and customers — collected over more than twenty years.
