Produktbeschreibung

Alice Hartley always knew she was meant to write. The poems in this posthumous collection were inspired by events and family members who came to visit and, although they might not have stayed long, had adventures all the same. Written over the course of eight decades, Alice looks back on a long life of friendship, love, and occasional hilarious mishaps. She recalls mischievous childhood walks through the nighttime cemetery to say hello to relatives dead and gone. She gazes into the foggy memory of lost youth and cries out to God in a midnight prayer of desperation. Through adventures on snowy winter days to an accidental swim on her husbands fishing trip, Alice relives it all. As distinct parts of life, she addresses love and hate. Some poems will leave the reader guessing, while others will help make Alice more understandable and relatable. Through it all, Alice makes it clear there are times to slow down, look around, and notice the simple things in life so that you may also say, One day, I was thinking about
