These poems are inhabited by light and shadow, flying insects and cocoons, the woods and the water--each one a brush stroke on canvas. Taken together, these poems form an impressionistic painting of what it is like to struggle with alcoholism\/addiction, as well as what it is like to learn how to live sober. Ultimately, the peace this poet seeks is found within the natural world: \"I've heard the woods can heal you....\" The deep inner strength she discovers is mirrored in the experience of viewing a partial eclipse: \"yet marveled at the power of sun, who gave so much light with the smallest fraction of herself.\" In the end, this poet comes to realize, \"I am not a low hum, but, oh, so much more luminous than I once believed.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.11 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 03, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713887342655,"sku":"9781635349139","price":25.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/3fa9328ee9986d42c55bc28ad6fd5be3.webp?v=1765066242","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/firefly-paperback-1","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
