I really enjoyed reading your eloquence on Jane Addams, as both your poem and she herself have so much to teach us!
...and I just love your poem "Lifting the Dead" because it speaks from a wise and freeing voice. There is understanding in your words that opens up all sorts of emotions as well as spiritual hope.
Blessings,
Christine
Wonderful Her Story ~Jane Addams~...Women have the will to lift others out of despair just as we see here in her story. I'm glad to see you posted this, Janet. It gives awareness to the great efforts women of past and present society, where they have volunteered a good part of their lives making other lives better and more liveable. An inspiring story indeed!
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
Early Works is an exhaustive compilation of the first decade of the poems and stories of Z.B.McClure. Included are family photos, rare personal photos, photos of 1st draft manuscripts of many of his early poems. Also some biography and memoir materia
Good luck with your new venture.
