This book is the culmination of a lifetime of poetry writing and acquired wisdom. The poetry is written at the highest level but it’s about daily life: poetry as life story. Each poem’s form reveals the poem’s meaning in a profound way, the overriding theme is learning to be who you are in a world of massive possibility. Carol says poetry can’t save your life, but it can attain the unattainable.
