Waiting for Rain - Paperback

by Mary Fox (Author)

The author says of the collection: "In collecting the poems, I focused on the moments that people live in between life's more dramatic events--times we are left waiting, resting, hoping, evaluating, mourning, or expecting what might come. When we wait for rain, we can hope for growth, change or relief but we also can think of rain as interrupting our progress, flooding our plans, or in some other way "raining on our parade," as the cliché says. I wanted poems that captured those reflective moments of life, our reactions, when we step back and look for meaning and enlightenment."
