A collection of prize winning poetry, The Moon Over My Mother's House, explores family, aging, enduring and bittersweet love, loss, and connections. The poet ponders how the natural world reflects human nature. The poet muses on her original axiom that every poem is a journey, every journey, a poem. Poems such as Waving Not Drowning (featured on LKMNDS Podcast), Infinite Tenderness (Featured in Roanoke Review's 50th Year Anthology), Self Portrait (Nominated for Best of the Net), and Darnella's Duty (Selected for Black Lives Matter Anthology) depict various types of self awareness journeys. The titular poem, The Moon Over My Mother's House has been selected by Moment Poetry to be produced as a broadside. The story behind this poem is a reflection on every woman's journey: "The Moon Over My Mother's House is based on an early childhood memory. I must have been five or six, and I was in the kitchen watching my mother take clothes out of the washing machine and hanging them on the clothesline. The clothesline seemed to touch the sky, and I thought I saw God watching us. When I told my mother that I saw God, she replied that one can never see God. I thought her answer was so sad. This poem attempts to recognize the many women, who because of societal restrictions, live with no hope of seeing their inner god."Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
