When a loved one dies, the family will often turn to their photograph albums as an act of solace, to keep their loved one with them just a little while longer. Grief Songs: Poems of Love & Remembrance arose from that experience. The collection opens with three free verse expressions of raw grief, followed by a series of photographs from the author’s family album, each paired with a poem written in tanka. Taken together, they tell the story of a loving family lost.


Thanks for this article. especially with the birds being shown. Grief can come in different types of packages, and it is always difficult to determine how to deal with grief.
