Under The Dogwood Tree: A Collection Of Poetry - Paperback

by Irene M. Wilcox (Author)

This collection of poetry ranges from celebrations of beginnings to the agony of loss and the certainty of death and its aftermath. There are poems reveling in the joys of nature and some that contemplate the troubles of life. Travel back in time as you read about the injustices experienced by slaves and the persecution of witches in Salem. The beauty of nature and the love of God are extolled as you join the author in a hurricane or sit under a dogwood tree. A tribute is offered to law enforcement officers and military women. All this and more as we celebrate life, death, and the hereafter. Emotions range from desperation and heartache to joy and awe. Some may make you laugh, and some may make you cry. Some readers will do both as they ride this roller coaster of poetry. So hop on, hold on to your seats, and enjoy.
