The Black Dog: Poems on Death, Grief and Loss
No Customer Reviews
This book was written to share a personal collection with those going through dark times; those close to them that want to understand better what that struggle is like and those who share an interest in the issues that potentially affect us all.These poems represent those who are different; those who are sensitive, imaginative and compassionate; inclined towards tears (though not publicly); so patient that they can survive in even the most unbearable of circumstances; those who are poetic, mystic, fatalistic, introspective and mistrusting of rational thought - choosing instead to trust intuition; who are able to feel a wide array of human emotions (from absolute joy to despair); who are submissive and, yet, stubborn and who enjoy a penchant for walking the dark.Why the name, "The Black Dog?" Winston Churchill coined the term to reflect the situation of those suffering dark times. It is a term associated with being different and with depression; things that I and so many have felt. Also, dogs have a reputation as being man's best friend. To that end, I wish this book can be a best friend to someone; to let them know they are not alone and to let them know there is hope.
