The book is nearly a guidebook to self-reflection and discovering what’s most important in this thing we call life. Whether the poet is writing about youthful days of wonder and expectation or end-of-life and what could have been and what was; she masterfully tugs at the reader’s heart and intellect; each word offers a key to reconnect with life’s blessings- the every day, the in-between, the this and that, and the importance of finding joy. Never looking back unless it is to motivate, inspire, and move forward.(MJ)
