A Sweet New Season: Reflections

By Dianne Rossol

Dianne Rossol's latest book of poetry and prose delves into the beauty of transitions. From literal changes in seasons to evolutions within ourselves, A Sweet New Season: Reflections explores the wisdom that comes with life experience.

As we age, we have the opportunity to look at life through different lenses. While humanity naturally approaches youth with single-minded self-involvement, as we grow older, we start to recognize the many people, things, and experiences that enrich life. We learn to cultivate gratitude for both the objects and connections that surround us, but also the concepts we understand on a more visceral level, like faith and spirituality.

A Sweet New Season explores-with unerring relatability-relationships and their importance, both in cultivating them and letting them go. Rossol's poems and short stories go to the heart of what it means to live authentically. She celebrates love and family, frailty and grief, that intangible sense of belonging, and the wisdom of knowing that not all questions will or can be answered. In truth, Rossol celebrates all aspects of life, without the need for those rose-coloured glasses.
