Gleaming Beneath the Rust and Weeds: poetry of life, love, loss and learning (Life Well Worn - Poetry & Pictures) (Volume 1)

This collection of poetry, photographs, and art invite you to experience life's journey through familiar eyes. Life echoes nature, in its staggering beauty and overwhelming storms, complete with new beginnings and unexpected or difficult endings; amazing life-changing loves and incredible lessons learned. While traveling the dusty path through life weeds will tangle our feet and cling to our steps. As we pause to rest along the way we gather the rust of the world. Yet just beneath the surface, still we gleam. We are not laid low but made stronger and more special. The rust and weeds become us. These poems share the experience of that journey, and the insights gleaned along the way. Beautiful black and white photos and original art allow the reader to share the scenery along the way and help to nurture the reader and inspire one to look at every day things in a different way. Look for the second book in the series "Shards of Metal and Shimmering Lace", coming soon.
