These free verse and rhyming poems explore themes of trauma and addiction against a natural landscape, juxtaposing our internal world with the external. While our emotions may be fleeting, Moonias showcases the permanence of the natural world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe River of Life: A Poetic Journey is the poet's expression of helping others understand and recover from trauma and addiction. With so many people facing these difficulties, Moonias hopes these poems will inspire and support those in need. The path to wellness and healing is varied and individual, but a journey no one has to endure alone. Nature is always there for us-if we know where to look. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith nature as a constant, we find dependability in the birds. eagles, birch trees and rivers. At the very heart of this collection is resilience-of the environment, of the human spirit. When we break like frozen rivers in spring, we can see ourselves as shards of ice or a possibility for change, a renewal, remaking our former selves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandy Moonias\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 103833909X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781038339096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e FriesenPress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Sandy Moonias","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113998921983,"sku":"9781038339096","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbee9287-5f24-4908-9d9e-357458169288.jpg?v=1769618472","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/river-of-life-sandy-moonias-9781038339096","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
