on the way to Amen (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578576466)

LilyMars' second book of poems continues the journey of questions and observations she recorded in heart stuck open in the enduring aftermath of the death of her teenage son in a car accident.In these pages, she returns to exploring the access that words provide to the surprising revelations unlocked by the gifts of tragedy. Not the least of these is profound awareness of the shape of life-its beginnings and endings-and underlining the magic of the mundane in the middle. LilyMars writes about connection-in human relationships and the stories that friends have shared, with nature, to the experience of living by the sea. "LilyMars reflects the extraordinary in the ordinary."In effect, this author's collected poems make a whole picture out of the sometimes dazzling pieces we are given: memory, story, imagination, art. She speaks to the revolving wheel of faith and doubt that is the inheritance of every human being.
