She is led to revelation, hearing the voice she's always heard, ""You are a lover of life, / never forget it."" This opens a door that culminates in the poet's joyous final words: ""Don't tell me all is lost, ask me / and I'll prove it - finding is the lining sewn / into losing."" -Judyth Hill, author, ""Wage Peace,"" Chair of PEN International Women Writers Committee Linda Whittenberg has beautifully captured the essence of loss in this manuscript. We find love in the items set aside for Goodwill, in the garage, watching goldfinches in the garden, in the sweat-stained rim of a cowboy hat.

Settle in and read these poems to discover what you hold dear. -Julie Cummings, president, National Society of State Poetry Societies: Colorado, author, Ride of My Life In sharing her journey through her grief process, Linda Whittenberg supports us in making our own.
