Summer Rays: Solace for Bereaved Parents

By Randah Ribhi Hamadeh

Book Overview

The loss of a child is every parent's worst nightmare. For Randah Ribhi Hamadeh this nightmare became a reality. The poems in Summer Rays offer consolation to any parent on a grief journey. It is a poetic diary of loss and communication with the eternal soul. Through her poems, all bereaved parents will identify with the heartfelt pleadings of a grieving parent and the connection with her lost child.
Readers will find her poetry profound as she describes the familiar, excruciating pain of a grieving parent, in particular on the special occasions where the lost child is missed; birthdays, anniversaries, Mother's Day and New Year's Day. They will also relate to her feelings of gratitude towards those who were supportive and frustration with those less understanding.
Writings from the soul are cathartic not only for the authors but for all who share their unthinkable sorrow. As with any writing, when the writer takes up the pen, the muse will appear. In this case, the muse is Samar Ahmed Al Ansari, the author's deceased daughter.
