Opis

Thoughts of Love and Life is a collection of poetry that asks and perhaps answers questions about who and what we are. Written on subjects ranging from faith to folly, as well as from life to death, author Nancy Brookfield exhibits a questioning, restless mind with but one conviction: that mankind has meaning and can improve. The spring green grass is growing now

and in warming winds it plays

It reaches toward the blue of the sky

and grows higher with each day

Then the heat of the sun will turn it gold

and the farmer will cut it down

The grain that he gathers from the fallen shafts

will go to the miller in town

And the miller will make the flour

and the baker will make the bread

The green grass serves his purpose

and lives though he is dead

Would that I could do so much

with this life of mine

And leave something behind to feed your souls

with the passing of my time
