PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNG
by Margaret Royall (Author)
This collection is primarily a celebration of all things floral, yet is much more than that, being also a hymn to life, for the poems are written from unusual and sometimes challenging perspectives. The poems in the 1st section, 'Flower Power /People Power', directly connect to flowers and plants either by extolling their virtues or by connecting flowers to people in an alternative way. The second section 'Roses and Thorns' gives an in-depth retrospective on the inherent joys and sorrows of life's journey from cradle to grave, seen from the perspective of a woman in her third age, whose life has been punctuated by chronic illness, grief and loss. Yet they are very much an anthem to survival, a way of seeking peace and closure by exploring more difficult themes through the medium of poetry.
