<p>When a loved one dies, the family will often turn to the photograph albums as an act of solace, to keep their loved one with them just a little while longer. Grief Songs: Poems of Love & Remembrance arose from that experience. The collection opens with three free verse expressions of raw grief, followed by a series of photographs from the author's family album, each paired with a poem written in tanka. Taken together, they tell the story of a loving family lost.</p>

Grief Songs: Poems of Love & Remembrance

<p>The ten stories in this anthology shine each at its own speed of light--dimmer, hidden deep in the darkness, or brighter, burning faster. Through tales of secrets, loss, and identity, empathy illuminates the path, lengthening the shadows of the human emotions laid bare. When a young boy collects secrets like another boy would collect rocks or stamps, darkness envelops the man he becomes. When a young mother accepts a ride from a stranger, the truth about her situation is revealed to her. A penumbra outlines the dark core of one mother's loss as another mother's gain. Through stories of divorce, memory loss, struggles with mental health, and estrangement, loss reveals what we are capable of doing to cope, to recover, to heal, and what we can become as a result.</p>
