Light and Shadow

Light and Shadow is a second collection of poems by the author of Beach Grass. Included are poems and reflections about nature, journeys, life, family and soul/spirit, written as she has travelled or as contemplative responses to moments of quiet. Although the subjects of some poems are quite specific, the underlying themes relate to the whole of human experience, including the love of family and animals, the joy of simply being, the loss of a friend or loved one, the awe of the night sky, and the kindness of another. Some of the poems have the quality of a meditation, others of a story, inviting the reader in as onlooker, participant.
