Publisher's Synopsis
Arriving in her senior years, Dell Belew sits before her sliding doors looking out over the marsh and contemplates her life. As the Oriental lilies are in bloom, she relates her many years of creative activities as being also in full bloom. Gathering the stuff of which her full life has consisted, Belew publishes her poems in this collection under the thematic title, In Full Bloom. Though the senior years are not synonymous with "twilight years," they do signal a kind of repose when time allows for more creative enterprises and contemplation.
