Rebecca Winning's Lullaby of Love: Selected Poems, takes you on a journey through her midwestern upbringing, relationships, deep connection with the natural world and meditations on finding meaning. It includes previously published poems from her early years, including poems from two books: A Cure for Backache (1977) and A Marriage Pact and Other Poems (1983), as well as 30 previously unpublished poems. The poems offer deeply personal reflections on love, loss, family, marriage, infidelity, divorce, healing, aging, death and new beginnings. Each poem crystallizes a point-in-time that celebrates the mystery and wonder of our everyday lives. Fans of Mary Oliver and Jane Hirshfield will appreciate her simple language and striking imagery as she explores themes of human frailty and connection, reverence for the natural world, and the intersection of the seen and unseen. Her book is a meditation on finding one's best self and living in harmony with ¿ and gratitude for ¿ the interconnectedness we all share.
