These poems explore and express emotional depths of familial bonds, memory, resiliency and transformation. Written with minimalistic words and structure, they layer emotions, ideas and word-images. Nature's solacing power winds throughout the poems that are more about exultations than expirations. They were written during a severe illness and subsequent death of a loved one and are presented in mostly chronological order. The author is an art therapist, visual artist, poet and educator.
"Outspoken Thoughts". Some of these thoughts you will need to consider carefully; take time to look into them. Always remember that most thoughts have deeper meaning than what is on the surface. So read deeply, read well, and enjoy.
