A Dialogue With Grace: Poems From Pandemic Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798500595690)

The poems in this book are a dialogue with life over the course of a year that has affected us in ways we still have yet to process. And while our individual experiences are unique, our shared humanity must be acknowledged. We have seen and heard daily during this time period that COVID-19 is not the only pandemic we are facing. Racism, gun violence, and health disparities are deeply rooted in our systems and we need to do the work to heal these as well. Yet, we have also seen great beauty and kindness in these times. Neighbors and communities coming together to help each other through challenges and through individual and collective grief. We have created art and music and shared our creations with those here and across the world. We have been moved by essential workers who have cared for others in hospitals and nursing homes and cared for those of us staying at home. We are all interconnected, and we have reason to be hopeful.

Included at the end of the book are journal pages, which offer an opportunity to engage in personal creative reflection. I hope these poems inspire you to create your own dialogue with grace.
