Publisher's Synopsis
We walked down to the sea front
To mark an anniversary
We let the rain drops wash our faces
Like God weeping over the memorial
Writing the letters of your name
In the slightly wet sand
So that even when it seems the world cannot recollect
We know the sea will never forget
Like us, it holds on, inhales the letters
And it breathes your memory
Out, with the break of a wave
Sending the sparks of your life
Everywhere
Waves of Stardust tells the story of Elizabeth Lockwood's fourth child, who died shortly after birth, and the grief that followed. Poems of love, loss, life and hope, this collection offers a glimpse at raw, early grief.
