This Woman's Work is an auto-biographical account of personal poetry that spans over two decades of writing. It chronicles the author's life from past-life recall flashes, dysfunctional maternal and paternal lineages, difficult childhood years, young adult primary love relationship, and the middle years of marriage and early motherhood.The poems openly speak of her experiences and perspectives on intimate feminine topics such as: neglect, abuse, incest, mental illness, patriarchal vs. matriarchal values, control dramas, suicide attempts, work, romantic love, sexuality, marriage, giving birth, early motherhood, anger addictions, self-worth issues, communication breakdowns, spousal abuse, infidelity, divorce, environmental and humanitarian liberation outcries, and the budding promise of a new woman being birthed out of the darkness and into the Light. (The author's story continues to unfold in her second poetry book Searching for God I Found My Self).The hope for world transformation begins with the Self. Only through our willingness to honestly examine our early familial upbringing and environments, and observe and inquire about our inner lives, outer actions, and resulting relationships, do we become aware. Only through telling the truth to ourselves and others, and breaking the bonds of unconscious chains, do we become liberated. Only through consistently committing to make new, conscious choices, do we become empowered. It all starts at Home....as this is the way of "woman's work".This book is for all the women and children, and aspects of the feminine nature that would not, or could not speak out during their time. May you be heard, and may you be at peace. With Love, Hope, and Trust for All of us.
