all things small is a book of poems that speak to marriage, divorce, dementia, grief and all the small treasures that mark a life. Divided into five parts, the collection takes its readers on an emotional journey that reverberates with honesty, depth and familiarity. Sticky with the juice of jealousy, fragrant with lust, tasting of sorrow, and aching with tenderness, these poems invite the reader into the speaker's home, gardens, and dinner table to rejoice in the beauty within.
