What Glows in My Garden

by Anna Davis Bedford

Garden...Kentucky...Mother... Unrequited Love...Children...Here I Am... Anna Davis Bedford's What Glows in My Garden draws us into a world of family relationships in which we share the lives of seven generations. Her poetry creates vivid and memorable landscapes and peoples them with characters who make us laugh and cry and whom we come to regard as friends by the time we finish the book. The mysterious, uncontained, and often playful powers underlying life are glimpsed through people, often children or even a "guardian angel" and through the "glowing", growing world of nature. Although the richness and joys of life are sometimes linked with sorrow or loss, the poetry holds together the past and present, with all their people and places, leaving the reader with an intimation of grace and a sense of peace.
