Blessed is She

“The Life After” was published on Holy Saturday 2018 on Blessed Is She, a Catholic women's website dedicated to a joyful expression of community.

I wrote this poem for a dear friend who lost her adult daughter to cancer around Easter time a few years ago. This poem is about loss and endurance and women and love. And the Life After.

“An Act of Contrition” was published in March 2019 on Blessed is She, a Catholic women’s website dedicated to a joyful expression of community.

I wrote this poem for my youngest son, on the occasion of his First Reconciliation, as I watched him from the back of the church, as he chatted to the priest, with his legs swinging under the chair because his feet didn’t touch the ground. This son is now taller than I.
