Rhythms of Life in Rhyme

By Bert Brown and Sara B. Dickinson

Finally! A poet for our time! Sara Dickinson writes poems from the heart that are a thoughtful, penetrating and honest look into the rhythms of everyday life, written engagingly in rhyme and meter. She writes about the wonders, troubles, absurdities, struggles and humor of our lives. Life events and her emotional response to these make up most of her work. One of her many enthusiastic readers states, "Your poems touch our soul-that hidden place where God indwells. Sara, words can't describe how much your inspirational poems mean to me. They are like salve to a troubled heart...." Her topics fall under these general headings: aging, caregiving, children's, comedy, death and dying, dementia, depression, emotions, faith, family, friends, grieving, illness, nature, occasions, relationships and widowhood. Her poems are helpful in that they name and validate the darker emotions that all of us experience to some degree, especially in difficult situations, and yet, over all, they offer validation and hope, especially that found through faith and the support of friends. Sara also writes about the positive, wonderful and funny things of life. Some poems pass on interesting bits of wisdom while others try to make some sense of the male/female relationship, which is always humorous and complex. This illustrated coffee table book, Rhythms of Life in Rhyme, is a good read and a great gift, which provides marvelous entertainment and guidance, while creating a rich springboard for discussion.
