When Time Stands Still

Now, I know death's canterWith each out-breathI wait for his horse Thundering through the valleyFlying between hoof beatsSun and I, drumming the earthSeparation and grief, oneness and connection-two radically different experiences of losing someone we love. But how do we find our way from one to the other, when we are in the depths of grief and depression? When Time Stands Still is a book of soulful poetry about profound life transitions from the poet's own experience, born of "unimaginable loss and unwavering love," where an individual's journey and relationships are not limited by birth and death. The aliveness of snowflakes It's the form that changes Essence remains Cycle after cyclePoems trace the joy of conception and birth, the complicated emotions of miscarriage and stillbirth, and the psychological/spiritual death and rebirth that these experiences can initiate. Shamanic understandings and the natural wisdom of animals, nature, and cycles of life are threads woven throughout. Illustrated with full-page colour artwork by Linda Mummery, When Time Stands Still is for all those who have had to reach deep within to find the strength to continue, for those who are questing after hope and light.Let the light Fill you again Pain attracts healing Where there is darkThe moon knows where to go
