I my estimation this collection is even more mature and moving than their previous work. <br /><br />Vivid images in this collection of poems distill the lives of the women who wrote them. They speak to all the stages of life and our roles as women reminding us how far we've come and how much we have to be grateful for. They celebrate aging and our roles as wives, mothers and lovers. Whatever your age these poems will speak to you of times to look forward to or to remember. These are not poems to read once. They will stay with you forever. <br /><br />If you enjoy poetry, I highly recommend this collection.
