Christina Colton Fox Reminds Readers That Poetry is for Everyone with Everyday Poems for Everyday People
The book, organized into relatable themes—Love Found, Love Lost, Nature, Spiritual Inspiration, Everyday Life, and Self Discovery—has resonated with readers who may never have considered themselves “poetry people.” Whether you read one poem at a time or explore entire sections, Fox’s writing reflects the joys and struggles of everyday life in ways that touch the heart.
“I wanted to write poetry that people could actually understand and connect with,” says Fox. “Poetry doesn’t need to be complicated—it can come from our daily experiences and still carry deep meaning.”
Fox’s passion for poetry began as a child, when she first discovered an anthology of English poetry her parents gave her. That love grew stronger through the years, especially after joining community poetry classes that inspired her to share her work with others. In doing so, she found that poetry has tremendous emotional power—and that many people avoid it simply because they feel it’s too difficult.
Drawing from her own life experiences as a teacher, community organizer, wife, mother, and senior citizen, Fox writes with authenticity and compassion. Her poems speak to universal human emotions—love, loss, joy, resilience—and encourage readers to see the poetry in their own everyday lives.
Beyond writing, Fox is also recognized for her lifelong dedication to helping others. She founded Parents for Parents in 1980, a pioneering support group at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City that connected families of sick children. Decades later, she founded The Happy Wanderers, a group that brought together more than 200 senior citizens for friendship and community events.
Now living in Pennsylvania, close to her daughter Beverly, a psychotherapist, Fox continues to share her poetry with the hope that readers will not only enjoy her words but also be inspired to create their own.
Everyday Poems for Everyday People is not just a poetry collection—it’s an open door for anyone who has ever thought poetry wasn’t for them.
Christina Colton Fox is a retired special education teacher, former church secretary, and lifelong poetry enthusiast. She is proud to be a senior citizen who has turned her lifelong love of poetry into a book that makes the art form accessible to all.
The book is available for purchase on Amazon and other online retailers.
