Product Description

Synopsis

A collection of poems that explore all kinds of loss. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Inside This Book (Learn More)
First Sentence
This is to poems that get lost in the dark, poems that flutter away, white moths just out of reach, camouflaged against rough plaster of bedroom ceiling, little bumps and patterns of branches cast by light from streetlamps, neighbors' windows, sometimes the moon. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars powerful voices, that speak very personally about loss 27 Mar 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I have only skimmed through this book but what I have found fills my soul. sister by andy young on p122 speaks so directly to me and probably to millions of others. In a way it makes me feel comforted, knowing that what we all share is loss. We all have loss in our lives and we learn and grow from it and somehow become stronger. I thank Naomi from the bottom of my heart for putting her time and energy into this beautiful compilation.

5.0 out of 5 stars What Have You Lost? 17 Dec 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This is a collection of poems about losing things, for all age groups. From losing pencils, keys, toys, parents, siblings, spouses, trust and freindship. A very moving book of poetry. It contains excellent black and white illustrations and I recommend it for students from the 5th grade up, as well as parents and teachers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I was moved by this collection of poetry. 22 Oct 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I purchased this book on a whim for my 9 year old son. He found some of the ideas very sad. We enjoyed talking about the different types of losses. I definately got more out of it than he did. I have enjoyed sharing it with my friends. The poetry comes from many kinds of experiences and is a great all around poetry experience.
