Aprašymas

What is the process of relearning and redefining oneself when one's world falls apart? This collection of poetry travels one view of a life that shatters into new life amidst trauma and examines what needs allowance and gentleness to heal and grow. In such a state of growth, these poems attempt to remind the reader that it is ok to cry, but to also remember to have more water than tears.

-------

More Water Than Tears by Rebecca Bleumel is an exploration of transformation, grief, and resilience that celebrates the strength in vulnerability and the beauty of fragility. Through poetic meditations beginning with "speak to me of the cocoon" Bluemel examines what it means to be caught between stages of life-from the piercing ache of motherhood's quiet sacrifices to the solace found in nature and mythology. This collection is a testament to the endurance of the human spirit and the ability for loss and hope to intertwine, to understand that there is "an elegance to being / beautiful when you're at an edge."
