Publisher's Synopsis
Whether drawing on observations on the state of man and the world, the love for Yeshua and the lost or the beauty of a single life, the poems written in this book are meant to inspire and hold up a mirror to our condition. Some of the lyrics are personal reflections of the writers past, growing up in a traditional protestant German family. These lyrics are illustrations of a mother's love, a child's innocence, the fragility of human life, songs of praise to Yeshua, and the prophetic afterlife that awaits us all.
Some of the motifs the poet threads throughout many of her works are biblical in nature, such as the meadow, valley, rivers, sheep, cattle, etc. The Christian Church has had a significant influence on the body of work the poet has created since 2015.
This collection of poems is an experiment in free verse and loose rhyme. Routinely, the poet has written Shakespearean sonnets, Villanelles, and Couplets. This book also includes a collection of artful photography taken from nature within the American continent during the writers' excursions abroad.
Some of these selected poems were inspired by the sudden death of the writer's parents in the years 2013 and 2015.
