Amnesia and Awakenings Synopsis
(28 poems)

Amnesia and Awakenings is a collection of poems offering a guide map, through verse, for the transformation of spirit.  Some poems focus on life chapters and challenges.  Others paint a vivid picture of the changes in the natural world or the transformation of the body with age.  Every poem engages with hope, like a furtive bird singing on a branch to no one in particular, and also to everyone.  These poems ask the reader to listen and be more tender, more patient, with the self that is emerging every day.
