Book Synopsis Poems of Mourning and Healing Memory by : Carroll E. Arkema
Download or read book Poems of Mourning and Healing Memory written by Carroll E. Arkema and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poems of Mourning and Healing Memory is a book that tells of the author's coming to terms with the death of his parents. The book begins with the author's father--and the author himself--dealing with the death of wife and mother. It continues with the author's powerful encounter with his dying father, then proceeds with poems mourning his father's death and its aftermath. The second half of the book contains poems which remember and honor significant people and experiences in the author's life. As a pastoral psychotherapist, the author finds the Bible and spirituality to be major healing resources, along with memories of some key people he writes about who have helped him grow and heal in his life. What happens in writing is a mysterious and awesome thing, and the very process of remembering and writing these poems has helped the author mourn and find some healing. Perhaps these poems will trigger your own memories; resonate with various layers of your experiences; help you move through your own grief; and perhaps encourage you to do some writing of your own!

Download or read book In Memory of . . . written by Bonnie DiMichele and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Memory Of ... was written to encourage people who have lost someone or something that was precious to them. Loss can come in many forms. You can suffer a loss with a move, an illness, a loved one passing, or even ones youth departing from them. Bonnie has found that old memories wash over her at times when she is doing something completely unrelated to the particular memory that passes through her mind. She sets out, at those times, to capture the feeling that attached itself to her. She thinks it is important to pay attention to those unexpected moments of inspirational thoughts. By putting those feelings down on paper, Bonnie can safely put that memory away and access it anytime she likes. The words in this book show how loss impacts us. We often feel alone when encountering a loss in our life. It is Bonnies hope that this book will help to open a dialog during times of loss and grief. She has also shared her love of photography to aid in uplifting your spirits. When Bonnie was asked to share some poems with a Hospice group, she discovered that she had accumulated many poems over the last thirty years that addressed the loss of a friend, a place, or a loved one. Writing these poems was a way of dealing with those losses in her own life. As she found the poems, she realized that they could be of help to people during the grieving process. A gift of this book is a loving gesture to friends or loved ones during times of loss and grief. Proceeds from the sales of this book will be donated to Hospice.
Book Synopsis Of Death and Grief by : S T Kimbrough Jr.
Download or read book Of Death and Grief written by S T Kimbrough Jr. and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This little book of poems reveals how the author has dealt with the grief that accompanied the death of his wife of fifty-nine years. The poems are a conversation on the journey through the grieving process, which perhaps has no end. Yes, they are permeated with a deep faith that there is more to life than merely living and dying. At the same time, they are honest responses to how painful it is to lose your life partner. Many of the poems are autobiographical: about first encounter, marriage, life and love together, and death. The actual physical occurrence of death can be readily described by physicians, but its emotional and life effect is much more illusory. Without question, these poems are simply one person's response to death and grief. They provide no decisive answers on how to respond to either, but if one's open and honest response can help others address such challenges, so be it. The goal of the author is not to provide steps for the grieving, rather through poetry to share the thoughts of the heart and mind as they grapple with death and grief. He avers that through the very difficult process of grieving, which may never completely end, love alone is the key to healing and renewal.

Book Synopsis The Fragrance of Precious Memories by : Ruben White
Download or read book The Fragrance of Precious Memories written by Ruben White and published by Ruben White . This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I believe that there's a message behind the message. An aroma represents the presents of angels. It also is an indication of the many blessings from God. When it comes to dealing with the death of a loved one. We all have our own experiences. Through grievance, pain, loneliness, and anger. These are the most common issue in dealing with denial. But there's a spiritual realm that goes far beyond our means. We have to start by accepting a favorable reception. By sharing, caring, listening, and embracing. People tend to deal with grievances in their way. And there's no time limit on how long you should grieve. Knowing that we still have a greater connection with our beloved. So, let's start embracing the time and memories that were shared. Understand that death is only a part of life, An Aroma of Sweet Memories is a collection of grievance poetry. That I had written to help my readers and myself. Deal with the pain of death and dare to move beyond our sorrows. Then knowing when it's time to let go and let God. The poem (As I glance in the mirror, I see only me). It's about self-empowerment embracing life and loving yourself. Knowing that there's still life for you after suffering a loss. Our loved ones are still with us in spirit and memories. As a prolific writer, the basis of my poetry is to let the reader know that it's okay. The Bible tells us in John 3:16," For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish. But, have everlasting life

Book excerpt: What do you do when you've lost someone you love deeply and miss them more than anyone can understand? This book of poetry documents the agony of loves that have been lost to death and the mysterious recovery that comes through memories and faith. The author's sensitivity to others shines through every verse. Starting with the death of his mother, he guides the reader through a process of mourning that at times approaches spiritual terror in its honesty. However, guided by his faith (both scripture and church tradition regularly call him back from the abyss) he leads the reader to a place of hope, ascending quietly above the "fog" of grief to a place of peace. Throughout the journey, it is his love, and that of his beloved, that proves more powerful than death.

Book Synopsis 100 Poems to Heal a Broken Heart by : Richard Rucker
Download or read book 100 Poems to Heal a Broken Heart written by Richard Rucker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems that became this book were written to ease the mind of my wife, Cindy. She had just been operated on for pancreatic cancer. A close friend of ours had just died from the same disease, and it was not pretty. At this time we had been married for thirty-six years. Cindy still had a lot of residual pain from the surgery, and was very afraid to die. I wrote her a love poem, and that made her feel better. Soon, I was writing more. I wrote poems that were loving, silly, or funny, anything to make her happier. Almost exactly a year later, I was in a motorcycle accident. It left me with a broken back, and eight ribs broken. I was in a cast which left me lying on my back for over four months. I became pretty good at writing on a notebook computer, with it resting on my cast, and up against my legs. Now we both had pain, and the poems brought us even closer. Other than the time that my family doctor told me that I had cancer (which turned out to not be true), things went along fine for about eight months. Cindys doctor had his assistant call her to say that her most recent test results were back from the lab. Without any preamble or emotion, she told Cindy that her cancer was back, and there was nothing that could be done! Cindy looked as if she had been shot. Now I really had to write some words that would help her on her last journey. I wrote to tell her how much I loved her, and how much she would be missed. The disease was consuming her body by this time, and she was becoming very weak. She continued on this downhill slide for approximately three months, until she finally required in-home hospice care. Her condition deteriorated considerably, but she still loved it when I read her my latest poetry. She started sleeping more and more, as she was having her pain managed with morphine. Our thirty-eighth wedding anniversary was August 20, and she managed to hang on until then. The next day, she slipped into a coma, and died four days later. I was beyond devastated. Cindy had asked me to get married again, even enlisting the help of her many girlfriends to find me a suitable mate. Before her death, that was a funny story. Immediately afterward, it was unthinkable! My whole world fell apart with her death. Cindy used to be the brightest spot in my life, my beacon, without her I was lost. I asked around, trying to find a grief counseling group, and found a grief sharing group run by a church. It totally worked! The people there all shared their grief with me, and I returned home feeling ten times worse. Many of these folks had lost a loved one from five to ten years before, but still cried at the mention of the departed person. I didnt wish to be like them, so I decided to take action. I started in again on writing poetry, this time for me. It had worked with our pain, perhaps it would help with my suffering. The first ones were rather dark, about loss and being alone. Gradually, they took a turn. They began to be about how happy I had been. Soon my poems were about being happy again. Quite a few of them were even whimsical; they had dragged me back from the brink of despair. Instead of just being happy, I wanted to be in love again. Cindy was right; I would not do well alone. There were several ways for people to meet, but most of them wouldnt work for me. I had seen ad for an online dating site, and decided to give it a try. There was a questionnaire which contained dozens of questions that were specially formulated to find matches for people, based on similar views of important subjects. I filled it out, and hoped for the best. I received several matches, and I started dating at a furious pace. It was crazy, I was going on eleven dates a week (one each weekday evening, three each, Saturday, and Sunday). It was tiring. Although I was going on so many dates, I was getting more matches than I could handle. I didnt know what to do! I became more selective in my judging of the respondents answers, and of their p

Book excerpt: It's an impossibly difficult and painful time; someone you love has just died and you have very quickly to choose an appropriate and moving reading for the funeral. In an increasingly secular age, people often look for a poem or piece of prose which will celebrate the life of the person who has just died, and, as well as inspiring religious poems, Sally Emerson's anthology includes secular words of comfort, celebration and mourning. This is also an anthology in its own right, and offers insight into universal emotions. These pieces will help to express grief and anger, but also help to understand grieving, and the gradual repair of life after losing a loved one.
