Reflection and Refraction (Paperback)

<p>A volume of poetry dedicated to the exploration of grief. From the death of an idea or the unexpected end of a friendship through to the loss felt when someone dear to us leaves this world - death in it's many forms and the subsequent grief it manifests comes to us in many guises. Similarly to 'Quixotic Nature', some of the poems may be obvious as to which they relate to, others more open to interpretation. What we can be certain of is of course that everyone has grieved a loss of some sort, at some point, and the hope is that these words offer some comfort in the knowledge that we are not alone in how we feel. The book is split into seven sections, following seven stages of grief, to chart the author's personal response to certain 'endings' as there is of course no standardised formula for processing grief.The creation of a rainbow, seven beautiful colours, requires the process of reflection and refraction. Through grief, we face varying levels of discomfort, reflect and navigate our way through them to come out the other side.</p>
