So Much Beauty

Marcia Eames-Sheavly

This fine collection by Marcia Eames-Sheavly brings into sharp focus what it means to be a daughter to a dying mother. This is surely a landscape of loss as Eames-Sheavly travels the back roads of Central New York to be with her mother through assisted living and then hospice care. Plants and birds and a deep well of faith reassure Eames-Sheavly and her mother on her mother's final journey. These poems touch on how we choose to make sense of the time we have left with a loved one. Eames-Sheavly gives us stepping stones of grace on the unfamiliar path. Rachel Dickinson, Author of Falconer on the Edge
