Divided into ten themed sections, this anthology-written and compiled by six outstanding poets "of a certain age"-begins with our ROOTS, starting in the attic, spilling precious and sometimes painful memories of loved ones. From the familial beginnings, we go on JOURNEYS, sometimes by boat, sometimes by bus, through night skies and dreamscapes and adventures. And what good book doesn't include a little romance? AMOR, a little-bit-sexy teaser section, is written mostly by the single poets who discover those youthful longings never go away. Here, a laugh or two is guaranteed as we remember heart throbs and missed opportunities. As we move into our "golden years," senior WELLNESS issues are fully exposed in scenes from a care provider and in medical traumas experienced in personal health challenges. Leaving the pain behind, the book lightens with WHIMSY, magic, blue herons, a bidet, and taking a couch to the dump. Readers are also warned about hellacious, yet hilarious, challenges in writing villanelles. In GAIA, these writers share their admiration for nature in the Pacific Northwest where many of them garden, watch birds, walk pristine beaches, and forest bathe. The COMPANIONS section, with dancing mice and furry family friends, amuses and teaches interspecies understanding. As poets, they're compelled to share their truths in today's political environment, so they do, in BACKROOM, where the news steals joy. These writers don't shy away from the bungling in early COVID days, mistreatment of immigrants, Native American strife, or looming fascism. Then, as storms grow "worst in a century" and oceans rise with CLIMATE change, these poems include authors' views on the state of the planet today. In PALETTE, A colorful kaleidoscope paints the finale of this poetry anthology, written and compiled by thoughtful, caring, creative, and TIMELESS women.
