Produktbeschreibung
Diane Elliot began writing poetry at an early age. From earliest childhood, she understood poetry as a way of seeing and being, of distilling knowing and presence into language capable of evoking flashes of insight and waves of feeling in others. And yet, for many years, working as a dancer, actor, and later as a teacher and somatic therapist, she struggled to reveal her full, authentic voice, to share the depths of her soul with others. This very personal volume collects works spanning 50 years of living, learning, connection, loss, and recognition. Each poem essentializes an encounter with a place, a person, an occasion, or a generation, and reaches for a deeper understanding, a more authentic experience of the other. Here the living and the dead, the dreamed of and the concrete, meet, converse, and ultimately bless one another, inviting readers to steep in the blessings of their own lives.
