Seasons of Hope: A Poetic Guide to Healing and Renewal

by Mary Elizabeth Anderson

Seasons of Hope, a Poetic Guide to Healing and Renewal, is a life-affirming view of the seasons of our lives. Each poem is paired with a set of thought-provoking questions designed to expand insight and prompt life-enhancing action. Every page reveals profound observations, insights, and inspirations. To borrow a line from one of its poems, this book "transforms the way / you see yourself and the world, / alters your very being. / And there is no going back."Seasons of Hope is so much more than a book of poetry, so much more than a journal for personal growth. It is a treasure map that charts the nature of human existence.

Hope in a Book is Right!

Mary (Elizabeth) Anderson not only creates an interactive book of poetry thanks to her "Seasonings" pages, she also takes us through a year in a way that allows us to accept healing and renewal in whatever form they manifest. A thought-provoking read as well as a thoughtful gift, I am certain this book will be well-received by many this holiday season. One of my favorites introductions to a season in "Seasons of Hope" is for Fall. I think it explains why I have always had such an affection for that particular time of year: "Fall is a time of Release, when the colorful leaves of the past are set free and returned to the earth as fuel for the future." Another favorite poem is "Well-Being of All." Thank you for sharing your gifts Mary!
