THE EXPANSE OF A POEM (AND BOOK)

A poem, book, or any work of art can be a doorway into something unexpected.  In the case of my latest post at SitWithMoi, Emily Dickinson's I'M NOBODY! WHO ARE YOU? allowed me to reflect on my relationship with Mom ... specifically how a book helped her feel so much better about her life.  Just in time, too, as she died within two months of the book-induced revelation. 

That story is HERE.  That story is yet another reason why I. LOVE. BOOKS.
