Tapestry of Grief - Ruth Ann Allaire - Bog

In Tapestry of Grief, Ruth Ann Allaire, portrays the devastating effects of grief on the psyche. All of us have experienced loss at some level. The response to this loss changes from person to person but on all there are effects. In the face of grief many are speechless, hence the phrase "There are no words." This volume attempts to relate the experience of grief in words which while not explaining may at least be descriptive of this experience. As time goes on the bitter, hot pain of first loss becomes shaded with continued observation of the psyche. A Year Later and Serenity are examples of a changing perspective. Lament examines the broader effects of loss and grief on a population of those involved in whaling. Grief touches us all. May you find within these poems a shared experience with your own grief. http: //www.aginggracefullyandgratefully.com
