About the book:
A ceaseless rain is a meditation on grief. It is a carnival ride where the floor drops out, it is a ghost apple, it is the bones left in the birdbath by crows. This is where the redemptive power of rain streams down in an eclectic mix of images, revealing the daily routines of a hospice residential home. Written in both free verse and haibun, the poems combine to create an intimate portrait of love and humour at the end-of life journey. This is a collection to hold close to the heart.
You bet, you can definitely order the book and have a read before the launch next week! CLICK HERE TO ORDER A COPY!
Thank you! Do share these details! We’ll Zoom you soon!
