In this debut book Ann Rayburn leads us on her journey as she looks for clues to understand her life. In poems and brief prose sketches she explores the people, the losses, the places, the events that have helped shape her life. From eccentric aunts to rock-climbing companions, from secrets found in a sister's youthful journals to reflections on the character of the moon, she has found her way to reconciliation. Always anchored in the world of growing things, challenged and renewed by the garden she has tended for many years, Ann Rayburn shares with the reader, as she does with those personally close to her, a thoughtful exploration of what life demands of all of us: courage and patience.

Ann Rayburn was born in California in 1934. Poetry called to her early; she wrote her first poem at six and can recall all but one line of it. She received a degree in English from Stanford, where she was accepted as an undergraduate into the university's creative writing program. A move to the east coast and a mid-life focus on career development, plus raising two sons, led to thirty-five years' practice as a psychotherapist and an intermittent hiatus in writing. Now retired, she lives with her partner, Jeremy Taylor, in Falls Church, Virginia, where she writes, gardens, and keeps track of her four grandchildren.
